Gmail is *advertised* as working that way.
In practice, though, Gmail used to exhibit search/browse bugs (e.g. failing to identify all relevant mails/threads) annoyingly often. This was sometimes true via the official Gmail web interface, and was especially true via the official mobile app, on at least some platforms.
They are also losing/deleting messages. I have had several occassions where I send a message and my delivering server registered the Sent status of the gmail server and it just disappeared.
This is more about gmail “spam protection”. Gmail filters emails after accepting them with secret criteria and sometimes the email ends up in spam folder and sometime it is just silently deleted.
By using gmail there is no way of telling how many (important) emails you have not received because of this.
