PGP is a method for securing e-mail sent by a person or a form. You must have PGP installed on your computer and on our servers for PGP to work. The first step is to create a PGP key pair. You need to use a PGP program to create the PGP key. PGP program can be downloaded form : http://www.pgpi.org/products/pgp/ Download the latest version available for the operating system that you are using. PGP comes with plug-ins for a number of popular email clients: Eudora, Outlook, and Outlook Express. Once PGP is installed on your computer, PGP software adds the PGP icons in the toolbars of these applications. This plug-ins provides an easy way for sending secure e-mail messages to other users. Finally, go to your Control Panel and add the Public Key that you created in your newly installed PGP program, into the PGP section in your Control Panel where it asks for the key. To remove any existing PGP Mail keys, scroll down to the bottom of the screen in the PGP section of your Control Panel. Select the desired key from the To remove a PGPMail public key sections drop-down list, and then click on the Remove button. To use PGPMail, you can have a mail form on your website. The form action line should be < FORM ACTION = "/cgi-sys/pgpmail.pl" METHOD = "POST"> This form must have three required fields. The fields are described below . 1.Recipient : This form field allows you to specify to whom you wish for your form results to be mailed. Syntax: < input type=hidden name="recipient" value="username@apollohosting.com"> 2.Username: This form field allows you to specify your username in the system. You should replace 'yourusername' with your control panel username. Syntax: <input type=hidden name="username" value="yourusername"> 3.Keyname:This form field allows you to specify the name of your public key. It is typically just your email address. The keyname is the email address that you specified in the name field when you generated your key. For example, if the key is listed as Help < support@lainterweb.com > then your keyname is support@lainterweb.com. NOTE: If you find that the e-mails sent from your form include only the username and not the encrypted message, please contact us through our helpdesk support.lainterweb.com.
