How do I encrypt a server, or at least make it so third parties cannot sniff/see data from a contact form that is being sent to an e-mail address? Through Yahoo Sitebuilder

Thats a better way of putting it. Use php for login, then use JavaScript to restrict access to those who didn't authenticate.

You can use public key encryption, if the person you are sending to has provided a public key.
That might be beyond sitebuilder to provide for you — I'm sure it is. The other trick is not to use e-mail at all, but instead to put the information online for only that person at a URL that is shared and use SSL.
On the form, you could also allow the user to put in the key, and use an encryption method that uses that key. Depending on the value of your data you would want that connection to be SSL.
