Ive certainly heard of people who would use it, but there would be a lot of concerns around privacy and security of information. I personally think gmail has most of the market here by providing automated translations, the big companies who want something better (and are willing to pay for it) probably use their existing translation partners....

Although...honestly...id you can solve the privacy issue and make an experience where someone sends an email and selects the new language, and the person receiving the email doesnt even see it until the translation is complete...it could seem very seemless and accurate, people might love it. I would, if i needed it.
