google workspace is $8 a month for a single email address
not worth

everything you send to gmail/microsoft/etc goes directly to spam and getting around that is next to impossible. you could rent a vps to relay so its not coming from a residential ip, but that doesnt matter, since every cheap vps or big server provider (ovh, hetzner especially) is pretty much guaranteed to be on at least one of the big email providers' block lists.

also chinamen constantly trying to use your server to sell dick pills

if you want to self host then do receive only or use an smtp relay service, its not worth it without
unfortunately all smtp relays ive found are shit or cost-prohibitive.
