<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">There is a lot to
setting up a mail server that needs to happen after you purchase
your domain, <br>

<ul>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Internet facing DNS</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">setup the
Sendmail/Postfix server (and you are thinking about server
failure here also?) <br>

<ul>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Making sure that
your server is not configured as an "internet facing open
relay".<br>

Anti-Virus & Anti SPAM tools to help protect your
mailboxes from Viruses and Malware.</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Setting up Mailboxes

<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Optional setting up
TLS, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC verification of your messages. </font></li>
</ul>
<p>Or you can use one of the host of mailbox providers that are
available on the internet.</p>
<ul>
<li>Google (gmail or Gsuite)<br>
</li>
<li>Microsoft (outlook.com)<br>
</li>
<li>AWS</li>
<li>your domain registrar has one I am sure.<br>
</li>
<li>There are a number others available.</li>
</ul>
<p>There is a lot to setup and keep running to make this work
effectively.</p>
