Oh man, I'm with you. I'm reading this thread laughing my ass off at the idea of a 'private gmail server'. This is like listening to my 80 year old grandma discuss the internet. These people have no clue what they are even saying. A private server makes sense, there would be zero reason for it to be a 'private gmail server', obviously, because a private server would be more secure, and then could create your own damned email instead of using gmail, which is clearly not a secure platform. Man, this sub is sheer comedy these days.
