I would have a failsafe, like use a major email provider for emails that you need to go through for like work order government stuff.

Hosting your own email is a great learning experience and is fun to do; but your emails will get marked as spam, you'll have to constantly perform maintenance, and have major reliability issues.

Most of the issues youll have are fine for personal use, but is dicey if you plan to migrate 100%

Edit: receiving email is less of an issue of sending. The forwarder should be reliable, however, its the sending from the forwarding address that would possibly be an issue.

If your self hosting your outgoing mail, remember to setup DKIM, SFP AND DMARC.

With all that setup, you should be fine

I don't have long term experience with either, but I started to selfhost both of them (anonaddy and simplelogin) about a month ago

I enjoy both, and both are running well at the moment - but there is no long term experience

I think , I would normally like Addy more (interface, capabilities, etc), however honestly it was the one, which caused me a lot more problems (mails getting lost unnoticed, without any notification, even multiple times - of course, in each case it was some config setting which I wasn't fully aware of, so kind of "user error). Simplelogin is running with less issues (as far as I can tell), and it's also a great piece of software: I can't even clearly explain why I use it less

Anyways, I'm very much interested in inputs on this topic, definitely look forward to discussion in this thread
