secure a form to email

[halyfax]

If I have an online form that is on a secure page https:// the info sent to the server is secure.

What happens when that form is emailed to me? Is that transmission also secure until it reaches my computer?

I am trying to use the most simple way for someone to donate funds using a credit card (not using paypal). I figure a simple form with the credit card number and the amount sent over ssl would be simple, but is it secure until it reaches my computer.

i'm don't know that much about this but I doubt its secure because when you download it are you using a secure protocol. Things like that.

The data would need to be encrypted with a server side GPG (PGP) and email would then need to be decrypted on your computer.

anyone have a suggestion for a encrypted form that gets submitted to a database and then you log in to ge the encrypted data?

Notes: For anyone who is using phpFormGenerator that comes with the Fantastico script package, there seems to be a weird security implementation that password protects the users entire website. This may be due to bad placement of the .htaccess file that is used for authentication. I would recommend anyone who is having such problems to directly download the program from the project's official website at sourceforge: http://phpformgen.sourceforge.net
This is without any predefined security implementation, so you won't have any problems.
