There are lots of quick reasons I can think of why this is a bad idea.
Your company owns your email. Theoretically, everything you write in email is owned by your company.
Your boss reads your email. Especially if you suddenly quit to start a new company.
You use Microsoft Office and don't know how to turn off auto-complete. C'mon - you've accidentally sent an email to someone you didn't mean to because of auto-complete.
It's weird for me to get an email from joe@bigco saying "starting a new company" - it makes me think that you aren't that serious.
I could come up with lots more. It's so simple to get a free gmail (or yahoo, or hotmail) email account. Be bold - take the plunge.
