I got into self hosting in 2021.

A cheap 2.5Gb how from racknerd, $20-22/year, + domain.

It's been as smooth sailing as any other email provider.

Very satisfied.

Try it

How do you back up? What stack are you using?

Not OP but I backup with a scheduled rclone to B2 and rsync to my local storage at home so I have the required three copies.

I use the Maildir format so each message is its own file making it atomic.

Exactly. B2 gives 10gb free so I haven't paid for backups yet.

I can give racknerd a +1 by the way (compute rental in my case, not email). Prices are good, machines are machines, support exists and is helpful even for off-the-beaten-path issues, and so far they still exist despite seemingly being a small player. I'd use them again (I don't have many points of comparison though, so take this review with a grain of salt).
