For example, something that is too complex for your comfort level, a security concern, or maybe your hardware can’t keep up with the service’s needs?

I've managed to do it for my personal email and find it very rewarding. Sadly, I could never use it for my business. It's just too risky and there may always be a few delivery problems here and there.

VPS hosting, BTW, not home.

    I have setup a mail server for my employer, and doing it manually yourself is difficult. I didn't want to do it for myself as well.

    However I looked into mailcow, and tried that privately and it works great so far! However, i would dedicate a separate VPS for just that.
