Thank you! It never occurred to me to consider haproxy to do something like this and I think it is exactly what I am looking for. It's definitely worth further exploration. My subscription for email service is about to run out and I'd rather not pay for something I don't have to.
Just so you know, running an email service isn't as easy as you think. You'll most likely deal with a lot of blocks from Gmail and the rest.
I realize this could be a possibility. I don't think it is going to be easy but I'll give it a shot.
Good luck!
Here's a fun little talk about email hosting y'all had me thinking of.
