Most of the issues I had were resolved simply by re-running the script, machine reboot or propagating DNS records again. Although yeah, small errors can give you shit sometimes, but I disagree it's that hard.

Yeh again, there's a difference between set and forget, and hunting down issues.

I've been my own sysadmin and mail server admin for a few years now because I do software architecture for work.

Things like using the postfix mail-id or mail queue to determine why a message isn't being delivered or being sent, correctly using dovecot, etc.

What's more difficult as well are all the hoops to go thru to get your email delivered to Google. Which is hard but can be done, however, Outlook, or sending mail to someone with MS account, is very difficult I to not have email go to spam.
