If anything; I think this gives people an impression that they can NSA proof their email-- when in fact they cannot.
The NSA is capturing, and archiving, the data directly from AT&T and Verizon's network. The fact it's set to expire on the OPs servers is of little relevance on theirs (NSA).
Cryptography is the only way to "NSA proof" anything; and only if you do it right.
