I have been trying to form a picture of the anonymous remailer services available to subscribers to USENET newsgroups. Here is the current list of mail-to-news gateways (obtained by executing finger remailer.list@chaos.bsu.edu): alt.test.usenet@decwrl.dec.com / yes, works for me alt.test@news.demon.co.uk / " " alt.test@news.cs.indiana.edu / " " alt-test@pws.bull.com X host unknown alt-test@ucbvax.berkeley.edu alt-test@cs.utexas.edu / works; discourages anon mail also, soda.berkeley.edu /works well I would appreciate a few details, if anyone can assist, please: Is pws.bull.com no longer in existence?, as I get "unknown host". Is this a list of all the public gateways that exist in the whole world??? Which of these sites welcomes anon mail for anon posting? Anyone know? (apart from soda) To cross-post to 2 newsgroups, I believe the standard method is: mail alt-test@cs.utexas.edu CC: misc-test@cs.utexas.edu So, can I cross post to a 3rd group by using BCC: misc-misc@cs.utexas.edu? And, does this mean that 3 groups is the upper limit for cross-posting? (I know soda has no upper limit, but I'm asking about the others.) There are plenty of Cypherpunks anonymous remailers available for the net to use, but it seems to me that they satisfy only one-half of the requirement -- we also need a number of obliging mail-to-news gateways if anonymous news is going to be a solid proposition. Awaiting your answers with great interest! - johns@macadam.mpce.mq.edu.au
