Guidance needed: Self hosting email server relaying through AWS SES
There's a fork of Mailinabox -- Power Mailinabox -- that will do everything you ask. I've used the base product for years and moved everything (about 35 domains) over to Power Mailinabox in the last 12 months.

Self hosting Email
I used Power Mail-in-a-box (https://github.com/ddavness/power-mailinabox) a fork of mailinabox with some features that were pretty useful. Especially with SMTP relay, email delivery wasn't an issue for us.

Alternative to MailCow
I can recommend Docker mailserver (it also works with Podman). It is already pretty lightweight but you can even make it lighter and it has an active community as well as regular updates.

Self Hosting Email Server
Use https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver or mailcow . They both provide reasonable default setup for spam detection and even UI for adjusting settings.

Case for docker
Check https://github.com/docker-mailserver/docker-mailserver It has almost everything in a single docker image. Email is not the easiest to implement with container(s), but that project has managed it.

Modern full-featured mail server for low-maintenance self-hosted email
I set up docker-mailserver[0] Monday in ~6 hours, most of which were me trying to be fancy using podman instead of docker and dealing with SELinux. But then again I did choose it over mail-in-a-box for just that level of customization. Obviously I can't tell how reliable it will be in the long run yet, but since it's using the classic Postfix/Dovecot stack I expect it'll be pretty stable
