Why people keep spreading this misinformation? It’s plainly not true and I am the living proof of that.
Been using my email self hosted (on VPs) for decades now, never had serious issues at all. And it’s all my family primary addresses

I think the general gist is as beginner self hosters we get more and more comfortable too “easily spin up a docker webserver” At some point we arrive at “what other services can i host” and email is a pretty obvious addition expecting it to at least not be more difficult then running nextcloud. It may be doable but hell is it not a comparable challenge.

Just because you can do it doesn’t mean it is feasible It comes with a lot of downsides
