Perhaps the penet remailer, which shut down in 9/96, is the one being referred to. See http://www.penet.fi. If memory serves, it was by far the most popular (pseudo|ano)nymous of the time. -Brian On Tue, 19 Sep 2000, Kevin Elliott wrote:

Actually asshole, there are plenty of anonymous remailers that DO let you reply to the originator. In case you're just a bit wet behind the ears yet and hadn't heard, a while back there was a big problem with one of them when the government ordered them to release their database mapping the pseudonyms back to the originators.
Oh? Name one please. After all, it would sort of defeat the purpose... As to your comment about having a database mapping pseudonyms to names, if one of those exists for a given remailer, it's not an ananymous remailer. I certainly hope none of the remailers in use by users here do such things.
