As in this picture, l don't want to remain a sender/recipient, but an address in itself. So that l can house multiple senders/recipients.

Would that be possible ?

Just curious how bad it would be without anti-spam these days?

    Well, it depends what you call spam, how well known your server is (are your email addresses spread far and wide on the web or only known to a couple of people) but a lot of spam is automated and algorithmic, so most servers will be showered with speculative mail addressed to likely mailboxes - which your server still has to process, if only to bounce the message; if you have antispam measures, your server can just drop the connection when it detects a spammy sender (e.g. from an address on a black or greylist). I'm not currently running any mail servers, but a few years back when I did, I used to get about 80% spam incoming.

    Honestly, not all that bad. A lot of the spam is just the stuff from companies we gave our email, y'know, the usual.

    There's the occasional spam/scam email, every few days at most, but it's pretty ignorable.

    (we did set up rspamd purely for DKIM signing, and it might be filtering our inbound email, I don't know.)
