Well, there isn't anything left in the world you can rely on ...
If you use a "free" service, you can expect it to charge/advertise-to you as soon as you become reliant on it ...
I own a couple of domains, and I can rely on that level of ownership ... until ICANN go private and pimp the whole registry to the corruption that currently exists. If I miss a renewal date, I'll loose the domain to a squatter (or Verisign, same thing) within about 3 picoseconds, and I'll never get it back.
My current mode of contactability is "google for my name".

Yep, new experimental feature, as of last week not rolled out to all user accounts. Help text says that if you have a "new features!" link on your inbox, you can go for it :-)
It wasn't enabled for me last week, so I didn't try ... looks like it is now, so I suspect the rollout is proceeding well ...
Also with automatic forwarding of email now, too ...

over ssl too, so no passwords visible to sniffers. (not sure if that is just for authentication or the whole transaction)
