I have a compromise: run my own server but pass outbound messages through mandrill. Most of my mail is inbound anyway.

It took a few hours to configure exim + dovecot + sieve plugin, but it has been running unattended for over a year (upgrades are automatically installed using unattended-upgrades[1]).

Spam is not a problem, I just use a different address for each service, and ban it if it starts getting spam. As an additional benefit, I know who failed to keep it private.
