As someone in infosec, how do you handle your personal email?

I got tired of Gmail reading everything, so I built a self-hosted
alternative with:
- X25519 + AES-256-GCM encryption
- Postfix/Dovecot on a French VPS
- SPF/DKIM/DMARC + fail2ban
- An AI cockpit that classifies urgent vs noise

Curious what setups other infosec people use. ProtonMail?
Self-hosted? Something else?

@noplasticshower I self-host with Dovecot 2.3 + Postfix on a VPS.
No issues with TLS so far — using Let's Encrypt with SNI for multiple domains.

SPF/DKIM/DMARC all set up with hard fail. Deliverability has been surprisingly good.

Honestly the hardest part was getting the PTR record right with the hosting provider. Once that matched, everything was ok.

What TLS issues are you seeing on 2.4? Curious before I upgrade.
