E A major second is equivalent to a whole note, or two semitones, and two semitones down from G-flat (which is enharmonically equivalent to F-sharp) is E, although it might be written as F-flat depending on the key signature. F-flat, E to G-flat would be a diminished 3rd, not a major second..
A D-flat is also an E-sharp in music. Technically, if you flat an E-sharp, you have an E, not a really flat D-flat.
