Were you using greylisting? http://postgrey.schweikert.ch/
That alone cuts down nearly all spam.

The LetsEncrypt certbot can automatically take care of certificates.

You can configure Debian-based distros using unattended-upgrades or
cron-apt to e-mail you when there are security updates to install - or
even have it install security updates automatically if you're
comfortable with that.

Then all you need to do is dist-upgrade every few years.

The time-consuming part is setting it all up, and it sounds like
you've already achieved that.

Cheers,
Adam
