Pretty Good Privacy is an encryption program that provides cryptographic privacy and authentication for data communication. PGP is used for signing, encrypting, and decrypting texts, e-mails, files, directories, and whole disk partitions and to increase the security of e-mail communications. Wikipedia

When this message is downloaded on the recipient’s side, it is decrypted using a receiver’s private key. Make sure you never ever share your private key with anyone. So if anyone is spying on your mailbox, all they’d see is garbled text.

Type on URL https://mailvelope.com and you can install it from there also.

I just only tested it in firefox and chrome.
