The only real issue with GMail is privacy but then ANY email service is hosted by a provider somewhere (even if you pay for your own server at a data centre) so as far as I can see GMail are

Probably because Microsoft is more embedded in NSA monitoring activities and has admitted far less than others? Such are the rewards for those who never confess to doing wrong nor ask for forgiveness if caught out.

Are you trying not to say shit floats?
I think any provider is going to cave in when they get hit with one of those famous NSA dragnet warrants. And SMTP is (horribly) exposed when it crosses the web ... So ultimately the security bit becomes an academic discussion about the best type of screen door to use on a submarine. It's a "people issue" as you've mentioned many times before.
I just go with the provider that is the least likely to piss me of while trying to do day-to-day administration and usage.
