Unfortunately, that doesn't work anymore. Even assuming you have the technical skill to avoid making your server into a spam relay the moment it's turned on. Which itself isn't easy, even for seasoned IT people.
The major providers are Google, Outlook, and Yahoo. Even if you don't use one of those, you're going to be sending to people who do. To combat spam, they check your domain and see if it has a track record of not being a spammer. A brand new domain on a brand new host has no way of establishing that track record, and the email will bounce.
You can get a track record by hosting your domain under an existing service. There's no way to bootstrap it on your own anymore.
Just get a domain from a normal provider. It will work.
No, it will not. If it works at first, it won't for long.
You can totally go to Hetzner, GoDaddy or other hosting providers, get a domain and send mails to Gmail.
No, you can't. Read the blog for why you can't.
