Is it right to blame Google/Yahoo for deprecating an email forwarding service?
Documentation for ARC is pretty sparse.
The instructions for setting it up in Exim (default MTA on Debian systems) can be found here: https://github.com/Exim/exim/blob/master/doc/doc-txt/experim...
(AFAICT, there is absolutely no mention of ARC in the main Exim documentation: https://exim.org/docs.html)

Best alternative to on-prem Microsoft Exchange
EXIM is a popular option, though it seems to be subject to just as many vulnerabilities and exploits as exchange is.. so either way you go make sure to patch regularly

Which email services are reliable on the long term?
Run your own. Usually with Exim or Postfix.

Looking for an email client with support for tags
I can either direct particular addresses to a mailbox on the VPS where they can be retrieved with POP3, or can forward them to any arbitrary address. Or anything else I can configure exim to do.

SMTP Relay/Server?

postale.io? Is this legit? Email hosting unlimited domains.
postale.io has an MX record that points to mail.postale.io, which resolves to an AWS IP address (probably an EC2 instance) and has Haraka listening on port 25 (if its SMTP banner can be believed)

Breaking Free: How I Self-Hosted My SMTP Server with Haraka. Send thousands of emails per second at the cost of pennies.
I found that Zerodha uses Haraka and Karan–their DevOps guy, mentioned it is easy-setup and performant.

How do you handle SMTP and service emails?
The next time this happens i'll move to a self hosted solution, like haraka or anonaddy

Quest for the simple SMTP Server
Haraka Like: Simple to hook into the processing pipeline Dislike: Node.js and had some issues with stability when I last tried it
-
Self-hosting email is simultaneously the hardest it's ever been (delivery) and the easiest it's ever been (setup).
Having another SMTP as a choice is cool but not as fun as something that is way more configurable (ex. Haraka), or API driven (a la Postal).

Mailserver
For the record, I'm using dovecot (https://www.dovecot.org/) for IMAP and Haraka (https://haraka.github.io/) for SMTP.

Running a private mail server for six years, easy peasy
I run my own mail servers for small projects, though for my main email I've actually switched to ProtonMail.
It's never been easier to self host your email with projects like the following around:
- https://foxcpp.dev/maddy/
- https://github.com/albertito/chasquid
- https://github.com/haraka/haraka
Of course the usual dovecot + postfix setup is great for learning even if a bit complicated.
-
Is a 'dumb' self-hosted email server possible.
Haraka (https://haraka.github.io/) is a plugin-based mailserver written in JavaScript. I've messed with postfix before but found Haraka easier because instead of arcane configuration files I can just read, copy, and tweak a plugin to suit my needs. Policies for receiving, storing, forwarding, and ignoring mail can be arbitrarily complex.
