What if protonmail, gmail or whatever email provider you are using goes belly-up? Are all your accounts doomed?
If so, what are some preventive measures? Adding backup emails to your registered accounts?

Don’t run your own mail servers.

I’ve had that discussion before, here on Lemmy. From my experience, like >90% of people will tell you not to do mail yourself. And there is a reason to it.
I mean don’t do it if you don’t know about DNS, all the added antispam like SPF, IP blocklists and how the big players handle that. And don’t make any configuration mistakes and become an open relay for spam. It’s certainly doable, though. (With the proper Linux admin skills.)
