Right, I must admit I had never heard of email being used for 2FA codes. Is that some kind of standardized protocol or something completely homegrown?
In the far past (and still today with 2 banks) I use hardware/smartcard based solutions. But everything vaguely IT world seems to use TOTP. They typically advertise it as Google Autenticator, but I use different FOSS implementations on both PC and phone and they have worked 100% smoothly.

If you don't have 2fa explicitly set up and browse with VPN enabled, you'll frequently get sites that want you to authenticate via email. Amazon does this, for instance.
