Y'all: I'm pleased to announce that the WinSock Remailer is going into operation tonight at 11:00 PM. Please feel free to test it. You can get the key by sending a message to winsock@c2.org with the "Subject: remailer-key". After about a week of further testing, I will be releasing the executables to everyone who sent me a note asking to participate in the alpha test. If you want to be included, please send me a note. Here's the info for the remailer-list: $remailer{"winsock"} = "<winsock@c2.org> cpunk pgp hash cut ksub reord"; I'll be adding "post" to this list after I get a more thorough testing of the NNTP code that I added for authentication. "latent" is also pending. The remailer will run every 60 seconds from 12:00 AM to 8:00 AM every day and whenever I am online. c2.org automatically spools the messages when I am not connected. Note: alt.religion.scientology and alt.clearing.technology are blocked. I'm not interested in run-ins with either supporters or detractors of the Church of Scientology. Binary and picture groups are also blocked, but only because I don't have the bandwidth to support them. Anyone who has blocking lists that they want to share, please send them to me.
