I configured a pretty simple system (dovecot + opensmtpd) following the guide on the Arch wiki in under an hour, it really wasn&#x27;t that tricky.  I have dodged some common problems, though:<p>- my domain wasn&#x27;t completely unknown so I had no issues with gmail flagging me as spam<p>- I use my gmail for signing up to things I don&#x27;t care about mail from, so I have yet to actually receive any spam (at which point I will figure out how spamassassin works)<p>I don&#x27;t think we need any additional software to make the process easier, maybe just better documentation from the distributions themselves or some already set up bundles.  Hosting providers like DigitalOcean already have ready-to-deploy images for WordPress and Docker and whatnot, why not one for mail?
