Hmm. Maybe I don't completely understand how this is going to work, but won't _every_ remailer in the chain need to know your FV billing account?
First remailer knows you and your FV billing account. Charges you its own fee and the fee for all for profit remailers in the list. (The envelope states what this fee is going to be) Second remailer charges first remailer. Third remailer charges second remailer. If the postage on the envelope is insufficient to cover all the for profit remailers the message passes through, it gets bounced or dropped. In principle it could work, But blinded digital cash makes it a lot easier. (blinded postage stamps) I would not try to implement it. Too much like hard work, for an unnecessarily complex solution. --------------------------------------------------------------------- We have the right to defend ourselves and our property, because of the kind of animals that we James A.
