That is, say I wanted to ensure that traffic analysis on myself were made as difficult as possible. I could Email something to a remailer with an embedded 'flag' or code (ex: blackhole, disposal, trash, etc) telling it to forward the message to the Bitbucket.
Try chaining the message through multiple remailers, then to a bitbucket address. One such address is "nobody@soda.berkeley.edu". Presumably there are many of this type.
Alternatively, I could include some other code or flag (ex: rubber, bounce, ricochet, etc) telling it to take the included (dummy) data, scramble it some, and return it some random time later.
Send yourself an encrypted message, chaining through a bunch of remailers. See the cypherpunks ftp archive on soda.berkeley.edu for scripts which will let you do these things. Hal
