How To Create The PGP Mail Key

Before using PGPMail, you will need to create a public key using your email software. Your email software should have instructions to create the key. 

Once the key is created, you enter the PGP option inside your control panel and paste the PGP Key text into the box provided and then click add.

The key code should look similar to the following:

:-----BegiN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----

Version: PGPfreeware 5.0i for non-commercial use

Necessary PGP Form Fields

There are three form fields that you must have in your form for PGPMail to work correctly. This is the recipient, username, and keyname fields.

Field: recipient

Description: This form field allows you to specify to whom you wish for your form results to be mailed. Most likely you will want to configure this option as a hidden form field with a value equal to that of your e-mail address.

Syntax: 

<input type=hidden name="recipient"

value="your_username@localnet.com">  

Field: username

Description: This form field allows you to specify your username in the
system. This allows PGPMail to look for the configuration files to encrypt the mail to be sent to you. You should replace "your username" with your main username on the system.

Syntax: 

<input type=hidden name="username" value="yourusername">

Field: keyname

Description: This form field allows you to specify the name of your public key. This will be the public key that PGPMail uses to encrypt your mail. You must possess the private key in order to decrypt the email that is sent. You can get your public key name by going to the PGP Manager. It is typically just your email address.

Syntax:

<input type=hidden name="keyname" value="publickeyname">

Optional PGP Form Fields

Field: subject

Description: The subject field will allow you to specify the subject that you wish to appear in the e-mail that is sent to you after this form has been filled out. If you do not have this option turned on, then the script will default to a message subject: WWW Form Submission

Syntax:

<input type=hidden name="subject" value="Your Subject">

To allow the user to choose a subject:

<input type=text name="subject">  

Field: email

Description: This form field will allow the user to specify their return e-mail address. If you want to be able to return e-mail to your user, I strongly suggest that you include this form field and allow them to fill it in. This will be put into the From: field of the message you receive.

Syntax: 

<input type=text name="email">

Field: realname

Description: The realname form field will allow the user to input their real name. This field is useful for identification purposes and will also be put into the From: line of your message header.

Syntax:

<input type=text name="realname">
