If you **really** want to host your own email then grab a cheap/free domain name from somewhere and use that instead of your main domain/address for your testing ans setup
Do all your learning on that email account and domain name that you can throw away.
Once your comfortable then you can think about forgetting about moving your main address as it's not worth the hassle! :-D
