This is a big fat illusion that you can protect your privacy on Internet. Measures to protect it even in some basic manner would involve anonymous accounts, heavy encryption on different levels, untraceable IPs and rather strong expertise in the area. In fact you are putting yourself in more vulnerable position by thinking that you privacy is protected by some good guys whom you "trust", because in this case you cannot trust anyone and actually you just proved this by saying that they don't have SSL on their service (this means that they are at least incompetent in security and privacy protection). So believe it or not - gmail is "ok" alternative now and unless you do some really nasty stuff you are reasonably safe with them.
