Graham Toal seems to have drug this thread to cypherpunks from alt.2600... Anyway, I tried the remailer at hacktic.nl and the mail bounces... The remailer does not seem to be working.
And you can take it as read that every remailer will be logged by the Black Hats too. Only double-blinded *encrypted* remailing is going to have any chance of maintaining secrecy, and then only if you go out of your way to explicitly chain round dozens of remailers in the hope of finding *one* that isn't compromised. (And that, only if all the remailers are regularly spoofing traffic between themselves to foil traffic analysis)
I doubt it... most of the time the system administrators aren't even aware of the remailer, much less the TLAs.
