power-mailinabox
A Mail-in-a-Box with extra capabilities and more customizability. Not just for power users!
I selfhost my email in a DO droplet with mailinabox.email. Love it. Zero tinkering so far, no missed emails, my email doesn't get spam boxed (afaik, I don't send a ton of email anymore).
I have tried many different approaches over the years with mixed success. I am currently running docker-mailserver and it is a great easy to setup mail server. I then use mailjet for my outgoing emails so they do not get flagged as spam.
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.
