It's not the most practical thing in the universe, but I have a small VPS that I host my email on for myself and a couple others (5 addresses in total). It's a bit of a pain to set up, but once it's working, it is really nice to have that kind of control.

There are dozens of us!

I think email gets a bad rap for difficulty of hosting. So long as you get your DMARC, DKIM, RDNS, SPF, etc right, it's reasonably forgiving. Need to take server down for maintenance? No worries- any mail that couldn't be delivered will be resent in a few minutes/hours/days.

Harder than hosting a simple website? Yes. Rocket surgery? No.
