Hushmail should be considered compromised. They have turned over plaintext emails to US law enforcement in the past.[0]

Thanks, this is interesting.
So, ProtonMail [0] and Tutanota [1] appear to be better choices.

On the data-privacy front, you may also be interested in Unseen[0], which has servers in Iceland, and Lelantos[1], which routes over Tor. I haven't used either service but they've come recommended. ProtonMail looks interesting.
