What is your working definition of "nym server"?
There have been discussions concernign this before both on here and other mailing lists, such as remailer-operators. A nym server is an operation similar to anon.penet.fi, but more secure. Sameer has two of these operating now that uses PGP encrypted reply blocks and such. [omega.c2.org and alpha.c2.org, both of which use different operating methods] What John is attempting to do is have a nymserver like anon.penet.fi, where folks can create an alias and send/recieve mail/postings to it. However, unlike Julf's system, a secure nymserver would prevent the owner from being able to divulge who the real-life person is behind the alias because of the PGP encrypted reply block and other options involved.
