Hushmail is as secure as a subpoena allows it to be?

Same with Yahoo and Hotmail.  This is due to operational cost. Plenty of
other web options for more secure mail exist: hushmail etc

You must go to https://gmail.google.com/ for an encrypted session.

If you go to http://gmail.google.com/ and log in, then your session will be
unencrypted. 

Most (if not all) of the links to gmail on Google's websites are to an
unencrypted session.
