Any tips for somebody looking to move to my own smtp server? It's been on my mind a few months, and I want to move away from gmail to my own server or to another service, preferably one I pay for.

I personally use OpenSMTPd for SMTP and Dovecot for IMAP. For spam filtering Rspamd does the job perfectly.

I personally use MDaemon which runs on windows Server and has a nice configuration ui. Have been using that for our small company for 20+ years.
