title: "Email Clients"

Our recommendation list contains email clients that support both [OpenPGP](encryption.md#openpgp) and strong authentication such as [Open Authorization (OAuth)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OAuth). OAuth allows you to use [Multi-Factor Authentication](multi-factor-authentication) and prevent account theft.

|
??? Attention "Email does not provide forward secrecy"
|
|
When using end-to-end encryption (E2EE) technology like OpenPGP, email will still have [some metadata](email.md#email-metadata-overview) that is not encrypted in the header of the email.
|
|
|
|
OpenPGP also does not support [forward secrecy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forward_secrecy), which means if either your or the recipient's private key is ever stolen, all previous messages encrypted with it will be exposed: [How do I protect my private keys?](email.md#email-encryption-overview). Consider using a medium that provides forward secrecy:

### Apple Mail

**Apple Mail** is included in macOS and can be extended to have OpenPGP support with [GPG Suite](encryption/#gpg-suite), which adds the ability to send encrypted email.

|
|
|
|
!!! attention
|
|
|
|
Canary Mail only recently released a Windows and Android client, we don't believe they are as stable as their iOS and Mac counterparts.
|
|
|
|
Canary Mail is closed source. We recommend it, due to the few choices there are for email clients on iOS that support PGP E2EE.
