Email is already federated. You can simply run your own email server (pick any of the widely used open source email servers) or join an email server that already exists (like Gmail, Hotmail, etc.)
Since email is a huge pain to host, it’s usually much better to just use one of the existing bigger services if you want to ensure your mail always gets to the recipient without being marked as spam.
