> Writing code isn't the hard part of running an email server. Getting your server not marked as spam is essentially impossible
I've run my own since the 1990's, it is certainly possible, there are many others who have done the same. I have no issues with email deliverability.
> everyone gives up on this.
Not everyone gives up on it, some do, some don't.
Have you tried setting up a new one, though?
I set up several email servers over the past 10 years (my personal one, my new personal one, one for my small company), and it worked every time.
I think legends about email being impossible to set up are greatly exaggregated.
And they can send and receive messages no problem? Fair enough, if that's the case. Every time I've revisited the thought to run my own I kept coming back to the idea of having to monitor blacklists to request your own removal.
