But you don't need a special anonymity server to do that; a keyserver plus either a personna certificate or some archiving mechanism is enough.

I have a PGP key I use for signing pseudonyms which performs the personna certificate function - I'll verify uniqueness of keys that I've signed.
I was thinking of remailers sending out anon messages with a distinct from line that has zero connection (in the nym database) to any email address. Is this possible? To establish a nym only through one way communication? -- Robert Costner Phone: (770) 512-8746 Electronic Frontiers Georgia mailto:pooh@efga.org http://www.efga.org/ run PGP 5.0 for my public key
