That's a known problem with emails. With no visual clues or body language,
readers sometimes cannot tell if it is a serious comment or a joke or
sarcasm.
Using a smiley :) or a wink ;) or (sarcasm alert!) can help.

Email is a great advantage to those of us who cannot read body language.  We
are all on common ground here.  It's like a blind guy in a fight in the
dark: he wins usually.
