This idea is similar to an approach I posted a month or so ago entitled "anonymous name resolution" which uses shamir sharing to break up the recipient's address so that there is no first remailer to coerce. The idea is that you should not deliver to e-mail addresses on the remailer network, but to "handles", these handles will be distributed across a DNS-like system that splits up the handles using shamir sharing. No server stores the handle->email mapping, but the whole network can perform the mapping. Remailers don't deliver the message to the final destination, but deliver pieces of the message to the anonymous name resolver network which perform the final delivery. -Ray
