I honestly don't know where this idea comes from that email is so hard. I have set up many servers for business and personal domains with very little issues with spam filtering. If you can take a few hours max to read about SPF, DMARC, DKIM, & RDNS, it's easy to get right. There are tools like mail-in-a-box that more or less automate the whole thing.
It's slightly more involved than setting up a WordPress install, tbh. I recommend self-hosting email as a good exerciseinn reclaiming digital autonomy. I was about to say I'm not a diehard, but then again, how would I know? ๐๐
