This is for security reasons right?  Which is the best approach SSL or GnuPG 
encryption? How are the two different? SSL is for secure connections, right?  Are 
emails sent through SSL secure only after the MUA sends it to your SMTP? How about 
when it is passed on server to server? Are they still being secured by SSL until your 
intended reciver recieves it?
