Secure SMTP

[RussellC]

Is it secure enough to transmit private information from a web form on a ecommerce site to an email address with a Secure SSL SMTP server. This will not be credit card information but personal information akin to medical records. Could it still be intercepted and decrypted or is this a safe way to transmit to email. Thanks.

You can look at "PGP signed messages" to use on top of all that.

Nothing is 100% but what you are describing seems reasonable.

PGP will not help encrypt the data but it can be used to validate that the message came from who it claims to come from.

AND.

It can be used to prove that the message wasn't tampered with.
