"Alex Kibkalo, an ex-Microsoft employee was just arrested for stealing and leaking company secrets.

Having spent seven years working for Microsoft, Kibkalo is alleged to have leaked Windows 8 code to a French technology blogger in mid-2012, prior to the software's release. Kibkalo was apparently angry over a poor performance review."

    I've been running a personal mail server for just over a year now, and I've had no issues with my emails being discarded. I regularly communicate with my thesis adviser (who uses gmail) as well as friends and family who all use various providers. As long as you've got your MX/SPF records in order, and you're not running an open relay, I see no issue with self-hosting.
