I use encryption in my small biz. But I only really need to encrypt maybe 1 in 20 that I send. My biggest obstacle trying to get others to install "reader" applications. PGP is beyond me.

I finally settled on Messagelock for my Outlook. It encrypts email and file attachments using the common zip format, which means most people that have Winzip can receive an encrypted message I send them, as long as they know the password. Messagelock fit the bill for my small firm, where we don't have an It dept. If we both have Messagelock the process of sending/receiving is automatic, but I haven't been able to get anyone to install it on their end yet.
