PGP
PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) is an all around encryption tool..it can be used to encrypt any kind of file...
Yes...in a way PGP is an "email encryptor", the PGP software I have supports various plugins for popular email clients (such as Outlook) that will encrypt your sent mail.
I hope this has helped to answer your question!
