I'm one of the stubborn hold-outs still running their own email servers
(down with the outlook/gmail duopoly!). Running a mail server definitely
doesn't fall under the category of "simple" though. You have to deal
with SPF, DKIM, DMARC, etc. Nevertheless, I have several email lists
running on:
* Debian Bookworm
* Exim
* Procmail
* SmartList[1]
SmartList lists are just text files[2] so it's easy to programmatically
add/remove emails.
