I use my personal email for IETF work, and expect to continue to do so; at 
the time I started with Cisco, the email disk quota on my "company" account 
would support my incoming email for 5 1/2 days, so that was really no 
alternative.
I've been surprised that some people STILL don't know who I work for, after 
5 years at the same employer...... but that's life.
