That is why you should use local mail client for reading e-mail and not
webmail. You can also set that your local client stores a copy of your
mail locally (for instance with POP3).
With IMAP you can move e-mails from one provider to anothe easily. So in
that case it is very easy to move from one mail provider to another.
Then you can use a cloud and send your *encrypted copy* of local mail
there. Ubuntu for instance offers 2Gb for free. And they also have a
tool called Duplicity, which is able so make an encrypted backup - you
just set it up and it works automatically.
