I had my email banned by Yahoo because I would get rate limited and I didn't have a way of surfacing those messages (huzzah opensearch)
What got me out entirely was when I attempted to send an email to a colleague at a random ass no name university and my email was flat out rejected with no way to reach out to the administrators. I wouldn't have cared if it wasn't such a unique project (oil and gas exploration using ML). I have not self hosted email (in earnest) since that day over 10 years ago.
