You have sent a message using the anonymous contact service. You have been allocated the code name an98437. You can be reached anonymously using the address an98437@anon.penet.fi.
Obviously I'm not going to send anon mail through penet! I guess this is a response to my post to the list yesterday, so someone must have subscribed with their anXXXX address. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rishab Aiyer Ghosh rishab@dxm.ernet.in Voicemail +91 11 3760335; Vox/Fax/Data 6853410 H-34C Saket New Delhi 110017 INDIA The National Short-Sleeved Shirt Association says: Support your right to bare arms! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got a similar mailing from penet, for no good reason. Anyone else seeing this? Mail header shows that I was sent the message directly, with a different anon id than the one Rishab was sent, which suggests to me these IDs are being generated for individuals ad hoc.

Anyone who posts (without a previously allocated ID) seems to get one. The ID's are generated ad hoc, they're penet pseudonyms. I did a who cypherpunks to identify the culprit, but found this: na97762@anon.penet.fi As I recall, naXXX addresses are _not_ double-blinded? Maybe this used to be an anXXX? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rishab Aiyer Ghosh rishab@dxm.ernet.in Voicemail +91 11 3760335; Vox/Fax/Data 6853410 H-34C Saket New Delhi 110017 INDIA The National Short-Sleeved Shirt Association says: Support your right to bare arms!
