Hey-ho 👋

What is the best approach for selfhosting an email server with static IP or blocked port 25?

I’ve done it many times in many different ways, now doing it again and want to hear what is the best approach these days

My port 25 isn’t even probably blocked, I just prefer to use my vps to help it with this stuff

Any suggestions?

    It’s not complicated until your reputation drops for a multitude of reasons, many not even directly your fault.

    Neighboring bad acting IPs, too many automated emails sent out while you were testing, compromised account, or pretty much any number of things means everyone on your domain is hosed. And email is critical.
