A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I use https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver with sendgrid.com as an SMTP relay (recieving emails is easy, sending them successfully is a pain)
Thank! I will look into this.
If you're serious about self-hosting mail... this is the best advice here by a long way. The hassles around SMPT sender validation and reputation management are a big deal. Receiving is not so bad if you know what you're doing.
Yeah, it sucks that there is EXTRA responsibility on top of just the administration, but the internet is made of people and people like to ruin things for everyone else.
