There is a way to beat this--generate new public keys on a frequent basis, and send them to whoever wants to send you absolutely anonymous mail in encrypted form. Have your anonymous partner do likewise. Since the key ID is fairly random, if it changes constantly, it will be irrelevant if it shows up in a message only once. Keep a separate (and temporary) key ring for these temporary public keys, so you can delete the key ring files when they start getting too large. Jonathan Wienke
