How in the hells do you do E2E encrypted email anyway? Email is a pretty well-defined protocol, and that protocol is not encrypted.

We've had GPG for a while, but that requires the other user also be on a platform that supports it. Was E2E only for other users of Skiff?

I haven't used Skiff myself, but I would guess that that's what it was. Proton and Tuta also feature E2E encryption, and it's exactly how it works there, too.
