Are you wanting to use an encrypted email service like Google’s Gmail, or do you want to encrypt the actual message, like on a Gmail account?

What kind of encryption?

I just want to make sure someone can't hack me and read my message.

Why don't you just use your email's built-in encryption?  You can use Gmail's, but you'll have to encrypt the whole email.

Encryption has a variety of uses, ranging from making it difficult for an unauthorized person to get information, to making it difficult for someone to change the contents of a message after they’ve been read.  Do you need to make sure that the message itself is encrypted, or that the person who receives it has no way to read it without decrypting it?
