Google outage – resolved

Re:Google outage – resolved by NorwegianDude on Monday December 14, 2020 @09:09AM (#25417672)

I'm running my own mail server, and I think anyone who has some experience with Linux should be able to do the same in a day or two. Once it's set up it just works.

You can still use Gmail and fall back to connecting directly to your server if Gmail is down.

Some mails might be flagged as spam if the IP/domain has no reputation, but that quickly passes, at least that's my experience.

I specifically use Gsuite so that I don't have to deal with managing a spam filter or dealing with IP reputation issues. I'd be willing to self-host almost anything else.

I guess something highly resilient would be - say - a mailserver on a rented VM replicating to two cloud providers via a service mesh.

Nice and simple! :D
