Internode used to be a high quality home internet brand.
My understanding is that loyalty is never rewarded for competitive subscription services (gas, eletricity, water, internet, insurance, etc).
I wonder how long until AussieBB enshitifies?

I’ve been self-hosting email for 10+years. I can confirm it’s a pain in the arse… Harder from a dynamic IP too (since you basically can’t get any reputation, or you might get an IP that’s banned for ‘x’ reasons)
Postfix + Dovecot here
Edit: Didn’t really give you an opinion. It’s doable if you have the time and patience. I work in IT too so I’m pretty good at troubleshooting etc. but sometimes it’s a LOT of time fiddling and debugging.
I used postfix and dovecot as well.
Basically walked through Linuxbabe’s excellent guide and was done in about 1.5 hours with SPF/DKIM/DMARC.

I have my own domain and a static IP with one of Linode’s nanode sizes servers for USD5 a month, works pretty good.
I use FreeBSD so used the guide here:

Sadly it is a little outdated and 1 step will fail right now until a new package is committed in to the FreeBSD repo (HTMLPurifier) which was removed as it was PHP7 only for a while. But yeah, have SPF, DKIM and DMARC running too. Took a little fiddling since I technically host for 2 domains but trial and error and all good now.
