Except when your ISP is silently subpoenaed and they satisfy it without notifying you. There's no telling what the ISP has stashed away without your knowledge.
I have had my gmail email subpoenaed, but Google notified me when they received it that they would supply the requested data on a specific date unless I filed in a CA court reasons why they should not do so.

Are we there yet? > One possible answer: https://www.mailpile.is/faq/ * Where does Mailpile store my mail? With Mailpile, your e-mail is downloaded from the Internet (via an email server POP3 / IMAP), and stored locally on the computer where Mailpile is running. * Then how do I access it when my computer is turned off? You don't! Exactly so. Putting aside, for the moment, outright attacks, the individual or the enterprise that outsources its e-mail to a third party thereby creates by itself and for itself the risk of silent subpoenas delivered to their outsourcer. If, instead, the individual or the enterprise insources its e-mail then at the very least it knows when its data assets are being sought because the subpoena comes to them. Maybe insourcing your e-mail is too much work, but need I remind anyone that plaintext e-mail cannot be web-bugged, so why would anyone ever render HTML e-mail at all?
