It's an interesting topic. I've always been of the opinion that it should be handled client side by things like this: https://mailvelope.com (or less simplistic email client features). The main reason being that I don't trust anyone who claims to handle it all for you on the server side, as a service. Years of emails and then "oops, by the way we gave the key to the police." You don't know what they do really, and even if you do then you don't know what the person who acquires their company does later. The only person you can truly trust with your privacy is you.
