as regards the 'legal requirements...to store all emails' if your, or anyone else's emails had content that could be regarded as sensitive to national security.. then i would have to suggest your using the wrong service provider.
I wouldnt have thought that any isp that provides a service to home users has any legal obligation to store all emails..deleted or not.

So you think terrorists and criminals have their own exclusive ISP's? Don't recall where I read about the requirement for ISP's to store mail, but it makes sense to me. We are in a "Big Brother" state now - all e_mails are vetted for critical key-words and flagged up to the security services already.
It's only possible to stop out-going e_mail if one has admin rights/access to the Local server, and e_mail is batch processed. As you say, usually within minutes, as such batches are normally processed several times an hour.
