Ok, I've migrated email to selfhosted
spamassassin or rspamd or ASSP. All very good. Spamassassin just works, but you need to feed it a good cohort of spam and ham (about 1000 messages each). Most people only send it the spam which will then bias it quite a bit and not have it classify spam as spam unless it's the worst of the bunch. Spamassassin is a filter for your mail server. rspamd is the same idea. ASSP is highly configurable and a proxy.

I am looking for something like barracuda for a home setup

Using Flask for a personal website - add dynamic component?
I'm currently looking into using a Bayesian spam filter like Bogofilter or Apache Spamassassin to help out. I'd run the contents of my Contact Us form through the filter after the initial validation, and if the contents are below my spam threshold, I would actually send out the contact us request.

Using xyz TLD domain as a primary email address
Avoid it. Apache's SpameAssassin flags several TLDs including .xyz as 'suspicious' nTLD[1].

Domain or Dedicated Email account to improve deliverability?
The famous spam filter SpamAssassin. Score: -0.6. A score below -5 is considered spam. -0.1 DKIM_SIGNED Message has a DKIM or DK signature, not necessarily valid This rule is automatically applied if your email contains a DKIM signature but other positive rules will also be added if your DKIM signature is valid. See immediately below. 0.1 DKIM_VALID Message has at least one valid DKIM or DK signature Great! Your signature is valid 0.1 DKIM_VALID_AU Message has a valid DKIM or DK signature from author's domain Great! Your signature is valid and it's coming from your domain name 0.1 DKIM_VALID_EF Message has a valid DKIM or DK signature from envelope-from domain -0.001 HTML_MESSAGE HTML included in message No worry, that's expected if you send HTML emails 0.001 RCVD_IN_MSPIKE_H2 Average reputation (+2) 23.83.209.151 listed in wl.mailspike.net -0.001 SPF_HELO_NONE SPF: HELO does not publish an SPF Record 0.001 SPF_PASS SPF: sender matches SPF record Great!

Spamassassin Untrustworthy TLDs
Maybe you updated spamassassin in the process? Because it looks like they have a list of "spammy TLDs" and .site is in it.

Why Your Emails May Be Bouncing Back & What You Can Do About It
To detect whether incoming emails are malicious, mail servers also use spam scanners, such as Apache's popular SpamAssasin. The internal workings of these spam scanners can be somewhat complicated (involving Naive Bayes Classifiers on trained, large datasets, for the curious), but the primary takeaway is that these classification systems typically assign a numerical point value to an incoming email to determine the validity of the message. The higher the score, the more likely that the email is spam. For reference, the ISP Optimum states the following regarding their spam filtering:
pfSense

Router for a 1.5Gbps connection
One option is Firewalla Gold Plus, or you could buy a mini PC like it and run pfSense/OPNsense yourself.

Have the IT skills you've learnt applied to life outside of work?
Download and install pfsense as a virtual machine or partition: https://www.pfsense.org Configure it with the rules you want: https://youtu.be/VAGFGppSt74 Play with it, but be careful because it will block all traffic unless you check everything properly.
-
Looking for Recommendations
Another option is Firewalla, or buy a mini PC like it and run pfSense/OPNsense yourself. Two similar concepts, with the cost being either money or your DIY time. A lot of Firewalla users say that it's much easier for home use than pfSense/OPNsense, so you might find it worthwhile to spend a little more on it upfront and have to tinker less.

VPN for network filtering
If you want firewall, I think you can use https://www.pfsense.org/ or https://opnsense.org/ , maybe running on an old PC or a Raspberry Pi. Not sure.

Looking for Guidance and Advice
I've recently started using OPNsense. It's similar to pfSense, but seems to be considered a little more user-friendly.

Bi-Weekly /r/Technology Tech Support / General Discussion Thread. Have you a tech question or want to discuss tech?
For most router issues, I recommend people always put them in to dumb bridge mode and put a proper firewall like pfsense or opnsense as your gateway.

Another ATT outage 5/15
I have found that my historical average packet loss is about 0.02%. Something distinctly changed around 4/20 of this year, and now the average packet loss has gone up to 0.05% with spikes even higher, associated with periods of elevated ping times. It rarely did that before. Typically the IPv6 stack has more problems than v4 (especially an incident of packet loss on 4/28), and neither has been trouble-free since I started service in early 2020. My data comes from a pfSense installation.
