I limited hosting mail to just me and my family a while back, hosting
for customers / randomers is too much hassle.
I do enjoy running an email server for my family and any friends though.
I find that once it's set up properly it just sits there doing it's
thing, very little intervention needed.

That's possibly one of the best things I did last year.
I hosted 6 or 7 domains and ~ 20 mail adddresses for customers and the
questions about missing mail and spam ground me down. I learned a lot
by managing my own (small) mailserver, but most of all I learned that
it's easier to let someone else manage it and concentrate on what I'm
good at.

Hello!
I'm coming around to the idea of running my own mail servers
again and
closing down my google apps accounts, try and
free myself from
our googley
overlord a little bit :)
Last time I did this I remember it being a pita to maintain. Can
anyone
recommend some reading for someone who hasn't
maintained a mail
server for
about 7 years to catch up please?
I've been doing this for a few years and I still consider it a pita to
maintain.
I use debian+exim+dovecot+prayer webmail. One of these days I'm
going to
give up and pay fastmail or someone similar to maintain it.
