Comment on Ask HN: Why do some of the engineers/hackers manage their own mail servers?

Comments

Why do most corporations run their own email servers and domains? For the same reasons. Engineers know how companies that provide email services really run behind the scenes. Companies do whatever the fuck they want and lie about it. They employ questionable people. You just see the good, happy end user side of it. Without substantial auditing and a strong contract there is no reason to trust something as simple as email services to a third party.
