I have been running my own inbound and outbound mail servers for over 30
years using ISP connections. The only time I ran into trouble was with
gmail recently and only because of mismatched SPF records for a domain I
host.
I have the option to use a cloud server for my outbound mail but have
never had the necessity. In fact some cloud providers prevent you
originating email from your cloud VM.
My advice FWIW is that hosting your own email servers is only a problem
with some ISPs. You can quickly find that out and then go to a different
solution if required
