Yes:
gpg -cer [EMAIL PROTECTED] </etc/motd >foo
While decrypting gpg ask you forthe passphrase if the secret key for
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is not available.

Nope. You use his public key to encrypt
He uses his secret key to decrypt
Alternativley you can use the passphrase to symmetrically encrypt and
decrypt. (That is what the option -c creates).
Please do not use gpg 1.4.8 but 1.4.9.
