Isn't it better* to host a mail server at home than to use Proton or Tuta? (lemmy.cat)

*With ‘better’ I mean that an encrypted solution is adequate in these cases because the mails are on other servers, and the companies/servers depend on the jurisdiction where they are located. But by hosting a mail server at home, even unencrypted, we are 100% in control of our data.

PS: is there a self-hosting mail server solution that stores everything encrypted? I already self-host almost everything I use, but not email.

Proton even takes care of endorsing MAGA for you 👌 Some people call that a bargain and a feature. I call it a reason to switch.
