Little help for anonymous mailer

An anonymous remailer is a computer which has been configured to run remailer so


ftware. This software is a specialized kind of email server software. Unlike ave
rage email server which goes to great lengths to log all incoming/outgoing traff
ic and add identifying and traceable info to its outgoing mail (in the form of h
eaders) remailer software ensures that outgoing mail has been STRIPPED CLEAN of
any identifying information! Thus the name 'anonymous' remailer.
The remailer performs certain automated tasks which include retrieving mail, dec
rypting/processing that mail (only mail that is properly encrypted and formatted
), obeying the directives within the message and, finally, delivering - remailin
g - the finished product to a second party in anonymized form. When received by
that second party it will reveal only that it was sent from an anonymous source
(usually the remailer's name and email address). The IP address shown will be th
e IP address of the remailer machine.
Using a chain of remailers you can send messages totally anonymous, but you can
receive too with a nym, download web pages, send files in FTP, talk in newsgroup
s, etc...
Remailers protect the privacy and the free speech on-line, because many surveill
ance systems exist, from marketing to military purpose. The European Parliament
scientific unit (STOA) has written up an appraisal of the technologies of politi
cal control, beyond the creation of the temporary committee on the ECHELON inter
ception system.
