Test of remailer at utopia.hacktie.nl
Look, folks, we're seeing more and more of these "test" messages. With 1000+ subscribers, clearly people should not be using the list as a target for test messages. And there is no need. Unlike, say, mail-to-newsgroup systems, about which there may be some doubt as to functioning, the Cypherpunks list is just another mailing address. Thus, if you can send anonymous mail to yourself--always a good test target--then you can send it to the cypherpunks@toad.com! I just deleted-and-ignored the last several of these "test" messages, but the time has come to say "Enough." (This is, naturally, not an enforceable opinion. I appeal to your common sense to not use the list as a target for test messages.) --Tim May Boycott "Big Brother Inside" software!
