I was wondering how practical it would be to run my own email server at home, I’ve set up servers before and know how to forward ports and such. Would it be possible to do it on an rpi 4 and do you guys have recommendations on any free software for setting up an email server. Thanks!

    Here’s an all-in-one mail server: https://maddy.email/

    Maddy comes with a lot of the ‘good stuff’ like DKIM and DMARC ready to be used, whereas setting that up yourself with Postfix was a pain (from my experience a few years ago) and probably meant you didn’t bother.

    Maddy looks like an interesting approach (Caddy for email) but seems pretty new and in development still

    https://mailcow.email/ looks like a solid choice for the OP.
