From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Nah you can use ghetto smtp to relay incoming mail to a different port on your server if your ISP blocks incoming 25 and sendinblue (it's changed names but my sendinblue config is still working) to send outgoing mail if they block outgoing 25. It's less than ideal but doable for low volume private email servers.
This suggestion always amuses me.
"You can easily run a mail server! All you have to do is route all the mail through someone else's mail server and bam, you're running a mail server!"
I mean it's not wrong, but it causes a case of the giggles.
