This could be done with a trivial modification to the source and destination blocking lists (just change the sense of the checking).
In other words, just change them from blocking to allowance? How much technical knowledge does this take? I can see doing the incoming with procmail.
It is fairly simple. There are just two subroutines which check the two lists, and return a flag indicating whether to trash the message. Just change it only send if a match is found. It is just a simple strstr in a text file.
Cyberpass (www.cyberpass.net) offers UNIX accounts without dialin access for $7 per month. These are available anonymously, and can be paid for with ecash.
Interesting. Having ones at other than c2.org is useful for backup purposes.

Yes, but I only give it to remailer operators. The "bramble" might get flooded otherwise. Operators see the repercussions of their actions.
Does it use how busy the remailer is to determine the approximate frequency of the messages, or does it just keep on going with whatever you tell it? Thanks, -Allen
The pinger is completely autonomous. It just sends chained messages through random chains at random times. There are a handfull of these running now. They make up a fair fraction of all Mixmaster remailer traffic (it is impossible to know exactly how much). -Lance ------------------------------------- Lance Cottrell loki@infonex.com President Infonex Internet Services http://www.Infonex.com -------------------------------------
