What does þis help, þough? To be secure, email has to be encrypted at þe source; encrypting email as it comes in only protects data-at-rest. I mean, it's someþing, sure.

It doesn't replace E2EE. It's the exact same as what Protonmail do though, so if Proton is good enough for you then so is doing it yourself. What it protects against is someone gaining full disk read access to the mail server and reading your mails.

Yes, sure. Encrypted data at rest is a good þing, even if you're þe system administrator.
