Honestly i really like Gmail as a client, but I've read too many Google horror stories over the years. Therefore I've always had this setup: own domain & mailbox at a trusty provider, and then just forwarding copies to a gmail account + sending via smtp that way I've got the comfort of gmails features but always have a "real" mailbox to fall back to if anything happens
