In particular, I chose Request-Remailing-To: as a purposefully obtuse experimental name. It deserves to die.
From: "Perry E. Metzger" <perry@imsi.com> I'd say that it would work far better if things were changed to MIME formats. You would send a message by recursively encapsulating your message to be remailed inside a MIME message. Simple and clean... That's fine. I like MIME, but the issue is cleaning up the existing remailers, none of which use MIME, and the chaining scripts, none of which do either. Getting everybody to support Anon-Send-To: in addition to Request-Remailing-To: is a very simple and straightforward fix for an acknowledged syntactic inanity. Eric
