You're trusting any free provider of email with your data ... I think it's unrealistic to expect everyone to host their own email servers.

  >I think it's unrealistic to expect everyone to host their own email servers. It's surprisingly more difficult than it used to be. Trying to get your server reputation just right so that gmail won't flag you as spam is much tougher than it was in the past, for example. Speaking of spam - there is so much of it that something like gmail filters out. I still send from gmail, although I use a personally-hosted (and aggressively firewalled/ monitored) box for receiving mail for things like password resets.
