If you are in for security you should add to that:
-Using GPG. Hard to do if your friends don't want to change the "normal way"
they use to send and receive emails, but many people online use it, so,
install it.
-Torbirdy is a good addon to use with GPG for anonymous email account.
-encrypt everything. For example, you can and probaly should encrypt your
swap partition.
-BIOS passowrd. Even if it is "useless" in many cases, will save you from
being beaten by a kid who can run faster than you.
If you want to read more about security, here is a VERY GOOD link.
