I'd appreciate if you'd be able to describe to how to create a simple, functional and (relatively) cheap mail server.

Did you even read the article OP posted? Using a private email server won't do stuff to protect you from these types of leaks.
Firstly, the 'collection' was obtained from a huge number of database leaks for various sites (https://pastebin.com/UsxU4gXA). Of course it's possible for someone to use credential stuffing with these leaks to get access to your gmail account, but that only applies if you use the same password for multiple sites like a handicap. If you signed up to any of these sites using your private email address, your details would still get leaked.
Secondly, https protects you from man-in-the-middle attacks, not database leaks. Infact, a few of the sites mentioned in the above link use https.

lol what? You can't just use a domain as an email server, you actually need something to host it on. Besides, setting up your own email server just for yourself is a pretty terrible idea.
There is nothing wrong with using a public email service like gmail, or if you hate google just use protonmail or something.  The actual problem is when you use the same password for multiple accounts. A password manager can help you with that.
