I've found (the hard way) one case where the new Encryption system is a 
little tricky.  If your server has both pgp and gpg installed and you are 
trying to use pgp, Interchange will find and try to use gpg and fail 
because the public key you specified was not known to gpg.

For this case, I had to fully specify the pgp command in the ENCRYPTOR 
variable *AND* set the "EncryptProgram" directive in the catalog.cfg file.

Variable    ENCRYPTOR       /usr/local/bin/pgp -feat orders@mystore.com
EncryptProgram   __ENCRYPTOR__

Hope this helps someone.
