AliasVault has its own built-in email server that allows you to create unique email addresses and receive emails straight in AliasVault. No third-party email service required.

I don't get how does that work exactly in a self hosted environment?

Just like selfhosting email I suppose, point the domain and add mx records etc. I self host Addy which is a service that does that

Neat. Do you ever get issues with your email being marked as spam? And if I understand correctly from Addy docs, you have to rent a VPS somewhere, or it's possible to run the whole thing on your own hardware exposed to the internet?

I only use it to receive email, so I don't know about sending them, but they don't go to spam

As for the vps yeah I use one, but it was a great experience to learn about selfhosting. As usual the difference between a vps and a pc at your home is static ip

Looks cool but wouldn't use anything other than keepassXc

And DX on Android, and Syncthing to match their changes, right?
