More and more email clients are supporting dark mode in emails:

Besides our normal preview mode, we provide a dark mode as well to let our customers check their emails how they will look like in Outlook’s dark mode implementation.

You can switch from the normal preview mode to the dark mode by clicking the Light mode button in the top right-hand corner and selecting Dark mode (Outlook) from the dropdown list.
