• After self-hosting my email for twenty-three years I have thrown in the towel

  Another compromise between self hosting and using "big tech" email providers is to use smaller email providers.

• Google Docs... But the LibreOffice version

• [advice needed] - Selfhosted Mail Server

  If you have a better solution, for example a good provider who offer agency packages which allows many domains and there is no catch, for example very small disk space, then hit me right away.
