In the list of my e-mail accounts, there is a lock next to the gmail account, yet not to any of my other accounts. What does this mean?

I'm just wondering what that lock icon on the envelope icon for my lone gmail account is, in the list of email accounts under the Get Mail listing. None of my other e-mail account icons in the Get Mail listing have that. Can you help?
