Alert! Hal Finney has alerted me to a problem with the way my script builds an anonymous remailer chain. Simply saving eachheader portion into a seperate file and running pgp on the pieces reveals each link in the chain. The solution (also from Hal Finney) is: hide the intermediate hops until they get to the machine that needs them. (machine1, encrypt1(machine2, encrypt2(machine3, encrypt3(user@dest)))) Here, the entire header is decrypted at each remailer, revealing the next destination to that remailer only. No peeking ahead! The only remailer that will be revealed is the first one, where mail has to be sent anyway. I'll rework the script, provide a ksh version, and write a little help file ASAP. /-----------------------------------\ | Karl L.
