I made a simple php shopping cart that emails orders to the client. I am renting a 'secure server' on which I am hosting the cart. I had to upload the public key for the client's email address. I thought that this was all I had to do so that the emails would be encrypted. They are not being encrypted. The tech support guy now says that it's a problem with my php script, because it is supposed to encrypt the email. Is this correct? How do you encrypt an email with php with a pgp key? Please help.

I don't do encrypted emails, so I can't help in that specific, but I'll agree with your "tech" that it does need to be encrypted.

You could always interface directly with gpg, but yeah, the tech support is right.
