What's the best (secure?) way of transmitting sensitive information
over email? I'm helping some friends build an online order form. They
have a Thawte certificate and are already using it for the order form,
but they would like the information to be emailed to them when an order
is placed. The problem is, the information contains everything, the
person's name, address, credit card information. Obviously I can't just
email this over over the ether, so how do people deal with this type of
stuff?
The server is a unix machine, and they are using winblows to read
email.
