A modern macbook pro has a T2 security chip and disk encryption on by default. It's possible that a random repair shop owner could read your emails if you turn off disk encryption or disable password auth, but that's even more far fetched.

It seems this particular mac doesn't have the T2 chip. It would still have disk encryption on by default.
