Stalwart is interesting because it's one of the few servers proposing
native JMAP support (open protocol!), along with Cyrus and even OX is
moving towards a JMAP compatibility layer.

Lightweight protocol that can sync different kinds of resources (
mail, calendar, contacts, files, notes, etc ) via json.

I've used Mailinabox and was very happy with it.
I moved back to Google Workspace because of concerns around backups,
data security, etc.
Stalwart, I'm not familiar with. Looks nice enough, but also, sort of
the worst of both worlds.
You get to pay for it AND host it yourself. For me, if I'm going to
pay, I want one of the benefits to be that somebody else deals with
the server.

Mox looks interesting. I'm going to check that out. Thanks for the
tip!
