I never thought about this. Also, I find it depressing.

Most of the time, it's not the case, and just the fact you are checking emails does not give your adversaries enough information to care about. Being uninteresting and unimportant is one of the best possible defenses. The higher the stakes go, the more minor details become important to conceal. These constant-rate white-noise channels are used by military and intelligence.
