In case my last message doesn't get through, I'm looking for info on how one can create and use a persistent Nym. I looked and can't find info on how to do this anywhere (besides the creation of a "free" email account somewhere). Can any cypherpunks help?
Cypherpunks have discussed this intensely; ask AltaVista where to find "nymserver"s and "encrypted reply block"s. The Anonymous Remailer List claims to be at http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~raph/remailer-list.html (though it might be on publius.net these days), and has some pointers to starting places. Private Idaho is a convenient user-interface tool for crypto and remailers, and really simplified setting up and using some of the early servers. Another approach is to create a PGP key for your nym (or a Crypto Kong key), always sign your postings, and use anonymous remailers for sending mail, and either read replies on the cypherpunks list or on some broadcast medium like alt.anonymous.messages.
