On a related note, what if I want to run a mail server but only for incoming emails? As in I want to buy a domain and create basically a sinkhole email address and create email addresses like [email protected]

I never need to reply from that email. I just need to be able to read emails I get. Should be much easier, right?

That should be pretty easy. It mostly depends on the exact configuration of the networking where your mail host is and your ability to correctly lock it down so it's not a spam machine.

Receiving email is pretty straight and forward, filtering it can be a little tougher but should be fine.
