"eMail servers are complex beasts."  Yup.  And we've had advice on this list about... "and don't do that, it's too painful."  I've been running Postfix for home use for, I forget, decades at least, and I've found that low volume home use is not that big a deal if you're an IT geek.  It's certainly not a Mom&Pop service.

It won't be ready to help Casey now, but Michael Lucas (_Absolute FreeBSD_ and many others) is working on a book:
