Since I have begun the project of writing the Remailer for the Mac, I suddenly realized that I do not know exactly what is expected of it, and therefore would like some pointers to the specs of a remailer (I have seen references to padding and splitting but do not know what this is nor how to implement it.)
I've started work on a formal remailer standards document that describes just how a Cypherpunk Type I remailer should process messages, with full header descriptions, etc. After I've checked it against the behaviors of all the various Cypherpunk remailer packages (Ghio vs Eric Hollander vs Sameer vs Mixmaster in compatibility mode vs whatever else), I'll post it here for comments.
Cypherpunk Type I? Ok, what are the other types? Should there be a type specification like there is for RAID, or the Body Armor Threat levels?
