Quite honestly it can be the most painful thing to run and maintain. Some people don't have much in the way of needs, or get really lucky with an IP range not blocked by major providers (Looking at you, Microsoft & Verizon), but outside of those circumstances.... when delivery is of importance and inbox delivery even more so, running your own mail server will be unbelievably more involved than running a web server. It's literally the reason Mitchell wrote this for our community team:

I can't recommend Webmin enough! http://www.webmin.com Its a lightweight web interface for linux servers. It gives you a web gui for installing a number of modules, including failtoban (which is great if you accidentally lock yourself out by using it!) and shows various system stats.
