Or do you carry your GPG key around on your smartphone? This solution, while technically pure, does not work. Those of us that live in the Real World send our regards.

My email is accessed over TLS. I have no idea what to tell you if yours isn't.

Oh, and my email isn't GPG encrypted. I just don't store sensitive data in my email.

The argument could be made that if your email doesn't contain anything sensitive, then you're not living life correctly. :)
