After 19+ years of hosting my own email - It's worth it!

Imagine someone revokes your access or deletes all your emails because of an error, at the scale of gmail or outlook.com it just happens.

For spam there is one solution:

- implement greylisting. It just solves the problem.

..or imagine if google just shuts down your account. Gives you no reason and suddenly stuff on your phone, your email and all those related services stop.

The issue with greylisting happens when you receive a lot of email from Google or Outlook servers. Different one each time, unless you're whitelisting them all - which defeats the purpose.
