I keep hearing this, but I’ve been running mailcow for a number of domains on a vps for the past year with minimal fuss and few issues.  It is a docker-compose setup with all the stuff you would expect for a mail server stack.  And if I decide I don’t like my vps provider, I can migrate to another pretty easily.  My spam levels have been just as low as they were when I was on gsuite.  My running costs are just ¥900/month for my current choice of vps in Japan.  
https://mailcow.email.   mail-in-a-box is another popular one, though it is not docker based.
