It seems like a noble move but as a german i know these companies pretty well and i am very sure they only do this to stop german users wandering off to non-german email providers like gmail. Its still a good thing of course, but dont think they do this because they feel its the right thing todo. Heck, if they could they would even charge extra for it.
