It's me again with another problem needing solving.

I need to make an e-mail reply "secure" or maybe the word is "encrypted" on a travel agency site since there will be credit card and passport information on a form.

How is this done?

So then, it would have to be done by the server????

Truth be told, I'm not sure. I believe you download the software and it works with your e-mail client. You probably need to be using Outlook.

It kind of works like an SSL. You install the software on both the client and the server machine. The server will generate a key which you will install on the clients machine. They can be kind of a bear to setup sometimes though.
