If you really like your therapist and feel like s/he's the best one for you, as I do, is there something that could cause you to feel like you needed to find someone else?
My T encourages me to email as much and as often as I want and he responds to each one. This is critical for me. I do therapy because I have a helava time opening up to people and trusting them with my heart. I love that I can work as hard as I can to open up to him each week but I have that email safeguard where I can say what I couldn't in session or share intimate details in emails before tackling them in person. My emails are the best part of my therapy.
If he were to suddenly stop replying or ask me not to email I don't think I could continue. Are there any deal breakers for you? Maybe a higher rate, fewer sessions, or no intersession contact?
