Hostinger isn't bad either. That said I would really like to self-host but everyone rightly tells me not to deal with it.

I know someone who self hosts email and they are constantly bitching that people don't get their emails

Unknown domains often get refused connections from mail servers. Also, it can be easy to get blacklisted.

Yes, because an unknown domain is practically guaranteed to be spammy garbage. Probably malware too.

Don't self host mail. Just use a privacy respecting and encrypted mail provider.
