I`d recommend the tunnel to VPS approach for running services locally (at home) but exposing them to the world via an encrypted tunnel to a cheap VPS.  My BBS works this way - the DNS entry resolves to a DO droplet but the actual physical location is a raspberry pi behind a book shelf in my house.

Mail-in-box is also a good all in one mail server.  Although intended to run on a VPS the same approach tunneling approach works if you want to self-host but still expose services via a VPS point of presence instead of your `home user` IP.
