As I mentioned in another forum, blame also needs to be placed on former New
York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer, who threatened to prosecute ISPs over
alleged child pornography in binary newsgoups and gave the major ISPs an excuse
to shut down their NNTP servers entirely back in the mid-aughts.

That did also have an impact.  But consider that had NNTP/Usenet 
service been seen as a major selling point for folks buying ISP 
accounts, or a major revenue center for the ISP, those same ISP's would 
likely not have shut it down, even with the bluster of the NY AG.

The ISP's had probably already targeted NNTP/Usenet service for 
termination and were likely simply looking for some reason to shutter 
NNTP/Usenet service anyway, and the NY AG provided a convienent reason 
at the moment.  Had he not done so, they would have likely latched onto 
some other reason to turn it off.

Indeed.

My ISP, for instance, since years does not provide email to new clients,
but fortunately has not cancelled the existing accounts. They also
closed our web pages.

You're lucky.  My ISP sold all its e-mail accounts down the river
to Google (and yes, I do know the provenance of that phrase).
Fortunately I was already getting email and Usenet through
third parties.

I think that my ISP did sell us to some local mail provider, certainly
not google. I suffer hiccups.

Now, I realize that I should be with an independent mail provider,
because it makes me impossible to migrate ISP. Too many people know my
address, too many services I registered or subscribed, too big a
nuisance to change. Back then, I did not imagine this. Although I think
that back then independent mail providers were more expensive or didn't
offer similar service to what my ISP offered.

My first 'internet email' was with $job, and as I knew full well the 
monitoring/tracking possibilities of internet networking I used it only 
for $job.  When dialup ISP's suddenly popped onto the scene in my area, 
I signed up and got a username@isp-domain.com email address (in large 
part driven by $job actually starting to do some of those 
monitoring/tracking possibilities).  When 'broadband' (DSL) appeared 
later in my area, I realized the negative aspects of having my email 
address tied to "@isp-domain.com" and bought my own domain and setup my 
own email hosting.  That was circa 2000 now, and I've had the same 
email address through three different ISP's and four different "links".  
That was also generally in the time before the advent of 
google/yahoo/hotmail "webmail" service overall, so one's options were 
generally an "@isp-domain.com" including the negatives related to 
switching ISP's or "host it yourself".

I ran into problems like this once. So I registered my own domains and
run my own mail server so I know I'll never be left hanging by a
provider. It is the safest way to maintain continuity especially with a
personal brand or business presence. Since this hierarchy is beginning
to look like a retirement community I want to offer some advice to our
future caretakers.

All youngsters and nascent hackers:

1. Register a domain name and never lose it.

2. Pay for at least 5 years in advance and put it on your calendar to
check yearly.

3. Set up your emails on your own domain so you won't ever lose them.

4. Get a cheap backup VPS, super encrypt and backup your stuff to it. Do
not use free cloud services for anything important. Pay the $20-30 per
year for the VPS ... it's worth it.

5. Every geek should have at least one VPS playground. Several is better
for separation of concerns and robustness. Running a couple physical
servers off your home or business connection is equally advised. Heck
even a few raspberry pi cards will do for most private stuff.

6. Run your own Usenet feed on one of your VPS machines and invite me.

This advice comes from me learning the hard way: always encrypt and
backup your stuff onto an ecosystem that you control, and maintain your
presence on infrastructure that you control, or else, you will likely
get clobbered when you least expect it.

I have now my website and domain registered by godaddy.
Before that I was running my own serverS at home, ftp, web, but there was an ever increasing number of attacks
from all over the world, many bots trying to get in via ssh, so maintaining it and checking the logs
became a lot of not very interesting work, iptables has 4430 or so entries now... some whole IP ranges..
Now I also have unlimited email addresses with godaddy, popmail, so good old
fetchmail and good old pine work great.
But it cost money of course.

	The ssh attacks I ignore, sshd is set up to only accept keys and I
keep those safe, likewise the VPN.

	The incoming mail server does get attempts to use it as a relay but
it only accepts mail for delivery not relay so they don't get far.

	The web attacks I ignore (well occasionally I look at the logs and
giggle a bit) but then my web server serves only static pages from a
read-only mount and CGI support is turned off not that there are any
script to handle POST, PUT or DEL it's GET only.

I agree with your true "can do" attitude. Perhaps this sentiment is
appropos: 'I do it because I can. That is "can do so, so do can"
attitude.' You are a digital martial artist in the art of "can do so, i do."

Be careful - it's dangerously easy to cross over into the belief that
"if something can be done, it should be done."  A lot of bad things
have been done - and are being done today - because of this.

TL;DR : Hestia Control Panel -- https://hestiacp.com/
Instant solution : namecheap.com hosting

Option A : become mired to your eyeballs in Linux / BSD administration
and set up networking, hosts, bind for DNS, and a mail server,
interface, MTA, and your DKMS, and SSL certificates using
Acme/LetsEncrypt. If you want heavy-duty security, maybe run with
FreeBSD and do everything with SSH using ECC key authentication with
password login and challenge disabled.

Option B : use a shared web host with cPanel or WebMin which saves a lot
of config foo and usually does all your configuration automatically just
by putting pointing your registrar to the host and adding your domain in
cPanel. This is a good option for people who don't know Linux command
line foo.

Option C : get a VPS or single board at home and install something like
HestiaCP, WebMin, cPanel. I like hestiaCP. It's like cPanel but free and
open source. I've not had a hiccup with it. HestiaCP creates all your
DNS records, manages your clamav, mail, package updates, firewall, and
ssl certificates automatically. It lets you administer everything on the
server with a web browser interface. There is some major shell power
under the hood and lots of command line options so you can manage it
over SSH if you want.

I mostly use option B and C with my setups. Option A is a lot more work
and I'd rather play with spiders than mess with a monster pile of config
code, especially trying to make bind play nice. I also dislike manually
configuring IPtables--never a pleasure and easy to get wrong then
painful to troubleshoot. If I need to jump ship to another machine or
host, I would likely need to configure everything all over again, which
I want to avoid.

With Hestia Control Panel you can backup and export configuration so if
you need to move hosts you can do so quickly with little fuss. Once you
have it set up on a home server or a VPS it should run for years with
little or no problems. The team of programmers that develops HestiaCP
are hosting providers and administrators who use it in production so it
should be around for a long time.

To back up your email folders from the server use rsync over SSH or SFTP
to another host or to a physical machine at home. Rsync is efficient and
has worked for me for many years.

That is, install a mail server at home. Requires a fixed IP.

Having my own domain is trivial, setting up and maintaining a mail
server is not.

(no problem with Linux)

So, there is no easy solution, it is not "just setup your own domain".
You need to "somehow" setup your own mail server, either at home, or
rented. And maintain it, either fully or partially.

	You only *need* a public one, it is possible to operate with a
dynamic public IP using dynamic DNS - every domain provider I know of also
provides free DNS with DDNS support, there are other options (such as
Hurricane Electric's free DNS service). A fixed IP address does avoid a
little bouncing retrying when it changes but SMTP MTAs are robust things
that have a long history of delivering over unreliable networks.

	An incoming delivery only (no relaying permitted) server coupled
with an IMAP/POP3 server is pretty trivial to set up, at least as long as
you keep the IMAP/POP3 on the LAN so you don't have to worry about it being
attacked - I VPN to my LAN when travelling rather than deal with exposing
services externally.

	Sending outgoing mail directly is a nightmare of the first order
subject to sudden death when someone else spammed with the dynamic IP you
just picked up - bad craziness! But then every ISP I know of provides an
outgoing mail relay so just use that if it works or find one that does
(my ISP's doesn't so I use the free tier of a commercial email delivery
service whose main business is ensuring delivery for big companies).

	It did take some fiddling to set up the arrangement I have, but
it's maintenance free apart from keeping OS and packages up to date.

[4 yorkshiremen] For a while on my first home internet connection with
Demon I used Demon's packaged ka9q on MSDOS which included an SMTP server
to which Demon would deliver mail for my domain (a subdomain of demon.co.uk)
and any subdomains of it I cared to use. While I was online mail would
be delivered directly to it using the static IP address provided as part
of the service and configured as the primary MX. This, along with email,
ftp, usenet and telnet clients all built in under ka9q's multitasker, was an
effortless "install and use it" thing provided gratis by the ISP back in
1992.

Problem is, there are servers that require reverse DNS to work, and here
with dynamic address it will probably not. Other servers will detect it
is a dynamic address and refuse to talk to you upfront. And of course,
it can happen that somebody tries to send an email to me the instant the
DNS changes and goes to the wrong machine; at best it doesn't respond
and tries again later; at worst it goes to another home mail server.

I know, because I have one. As to being easy to maintain...

And there your plan goes bad, because *here* every ISP I know refuses to
set up an outgoing mail relay.

All ISPs I tried only allow you sending email IF your From address
belongs to their pool (which can be a single host).

As to a commercial email delivery, didn't find any. Not "free", certainly.

	Email me (steve at sohara dot org) if you want to know which one I'm
using - it's free for up to 2000 emails per month (they quote prices up to
1.5 million per month after that they want to talk and make a deal) and
hasn't let me down yet.

Setting up a mailserver for a single domain at home using Postfix 
involves editing about four to five lines of the default Postfix config 
file (and the config file is heavily commented, 90%+ is comments 
describing what each option performs).

It comes, out of the box, already configured for this use-case (single 
domain), and all you are telling it by the edits is little more than 
what your domain name is so it knows who to send/receive as and what IP 
addresses are used on your local network.

Long gone are the days of sendmail.cf files and arcane M4 macros (both 
still exist if you prefer that).  But Postfix makes it nearly 'turnkey' 
for setting one up.  And that default setup is also secure overall as 
well.

Postfix has also been quite good at forward compatibility, seldom does 
an old config file fail to 'configure' a newer version, so 
"maintaining" is more often than not a "shutdown, upgrade to new 
version, restart" cycle for the mailserver.
