I feel your pain.
I've offered and encouraged people I correspond with to use PGP or some variant thereof many times over the years. Despite its being so easy to use, with plugins for just about every popular mail client, no one will. I think people feel silly using it for some reason. The people I've tried to persuade are all technical people, so I know they're not intimidated by it.

Someday, maybe.
