From: KINNEY WILLIAM H <kinney@spot.Colorado.EDU> The routing information would be for the benefit of the remailers only. It would be created by the RECIPIENT and made publicly available as a pseudonymous mail address. It would work like this: ... This seems to me to be a very robust pseudonymous mail system which could be implemented by relatively minor changes to the existing Cypherpunk remailer structure.
This appears to be the ARA system that was previously suggested, which I was speaking of using with penet. Your comment that changes would be needed implies that it is different; if so, could you clarify the difference? The reason Eric suggested hanging this off the side of a pseudonym server is that it is rather inconvenient in its pure form, particularly for unsophisticated users. It involves a thirty-line block of cruft, cutting and pasting... ideally your MUA would handle everything, but this isn't going to happen soon. Grafting this onto a nymserver as a return address gives you the ease of use of something like penet, without having to maintain a central nym<--->name mapping.
