If you manage to get a good SMTP relay host or authenticated SMTP account for your outgoing email then playing around with small scale self hosting email (Granted that it is not your important daily driver email accounts) can be an interesting and fun experience. But you will have to invest some time reading and tweaking and figuring things out. Slightly comparable with installing Arch Linux. Lots of people will warn you to not do it but you might learn a few valuable things on the way there.
