There are technologies to digitally sign and/or encrypt email messages, both PGP and S/MIME are available.
</p>
<p>
As secure instant messaging becomes more widespread email signing and encryption is becoming less common with people leaning towards services such as WhatsApp, Signal and Telegram for secure communication.
</p>
<p>
S/MIME is more widely supported but does mean that you have to buy a certificate, cheaper certificates do not provide proof of the person sending the email, however your email client can use the certificate to check whether the email has been tampered with. More expensive certificates are available that you can use to prove your identity - these are the type of certificated used to digitally sign documents such as PDF files.
