Secure Form Processing

Still new to php...

I have created an html form.  The form will be placed on a shared SSL.  I want to take the values from the form and send them to an email address.  How can I send this private information over email and still make it secure?  I could also possibly print the values to another webpage or have php create a pdf file and send that through email?  I'm just not sure what options I have available for securing the transfer of the values to the recipient.  Any Ideas?

you will also need to encrypt your email to maintain security otherwise its all a bit of a waste of time.

easiest way is to form a string of all your data, encrypt it using the mcrypt set of functions and a key of your choice, email that string and then decrypt it at the other end.
