i think it might in theory

      Exactly, that was my point. Email as it is, is insecure, because you can’t encrypt it and make it work universally unless everyone else does.

          English isn’t my first language so I might be using “inherently” incorrectly, but I thought it means:

          in a way that exists as a natural or basic part of something

          So in its basic and natural form, email is not secure. It wasn’t designed as such. Full E2E encryption was only implemented recently by certain providers within their own domains, and won’t work across the board unless all of them cooperate, which won’t happen.
