Good question... I've never used encryption or signatures, but I *think*
PGP can use non-free encryption standards, and for obvious reasons GNU
PG cannot decrypt these. So the answer to your question is: Either use
GNU PG on both ends or ensure that PGP will only use those encryption
standards that GNU PG can use as well.
