I will set up your own private mail server
About this Gig
Tired of paying monthly fees for email hosting or dealing with unreliable third-party providers? I'll set up a fully functional, self-hosted mail server on your own VPS giving you complete control over your email infrastructure, with no shared-hosting delays or vendor lock-in.
What's included:
- Postfix + Dovecot configuration (SMTP/IMAP)
- SSL/TLS encryption for secure mail
- SPF, DKIM, DMARC, PTR configured correctly from day one
- Spam filtering setup
- Webmail interface (Roundcube) or full Mailcow stack
- Instant, real-time mail delivery no shared-hosting delays like you'd get with generic hosting
- Mail-tester.com score verification (proof your setup won't land in spam)
Don't have a VPS yet? No problem I can guide you through getting one, or set everything up for you end-to-end.
With 7+ years as a Network & Systems Administrator, I've managed enterprise mail infrastructure and know how to avoid common pitfalls like blacklisting, misconfigured DNS, and broken deliverability.
Own your email infrastructure no more third-party dependency, no more monthly hosting fees.
Message me before ordering with your domain name and current setup so I can confirm everything's ready to go.

FAQ
Do I need my own server?
Yes, you'll need a VPS or dedicated server with root access. I can recommend providers if you don't have one yet.
Will this work with my existing domain?
Yes, I'll configure all the necessary DNS records (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC) for your domain.
Can you migrate my existing emails?
Yes, email migration is available as an add-on. Just message me with details before ordering.
Will this affect my current email service while you set it up?
No. I build and test everything on a separate server/subdomain first (e.g. mail.yourdomain.com) without touching your live email. Only once everything passes testing do we switch your domain's MX records over — meaning zero downtime and no risk to emails you're currently receiving.
