To sign email, form a 'C' shape with your non-dominant hand and hold it in front of you, with the palm facing your dominant side. Extend the index finger of your dominant hand. Pass your dominant index finger back and forth through the opening of the 'C' handshape.
To sign this, point to the person, sign 'receive', and then sign 'email' while raising your eyebrows to indicate a yes/no question.
Sign 'I', then sign 'email' by moving your dominant index finger through the 'C' shape directly toward the person you are talking to, followed by the sign for 'tomorrow'.
Sign 'please', then 'check', and finish with the sign for 'email'. You can point to the person before signing 'email' to establish whose inbox needs checking.

Yes, your non-dominant hand should form the stationary 'C' shape. Your dominant hand should be the one performing the active movement of passing through the 'C'.
You can sweep the sign in a horizontal arc in front of you as you perform the forward motion. This sweeping movement indicates that the email is being sent out to several individuals at once.
