I suggest runbox.com.

>Runbox will not disclose account information or email data to authorities unless presented with a Norwegian court order.

Isn't that the same as what's happening here?

No, Google is being presented with an American court order.

Phrasing Runbox's sentence in another way:

> Runbox will not disclose account information or email data to authorities unless presented with a court order issued by the country we do business in.

And then it becomes identical to this situation.

It is a good point, I guess my assumption was this would be a lesser chance than it happening at Google. In any case, they have been reliable as an email host, so I am grateful for that. I wanted to suggest another option; not a perfect option.

Well Google does business in every country , so still better to be compliant with one country with better privacy safe guards than a company which has to please every government

The manning cable leaks showed that Norway is under America's thumb.
