Just a quick note to say that I sent out a packet of tests for the remailers via the RBBSnet UUCP gate following the standard Cypherpunks form: To: remailer@some.place.edu :: Request-Remailing-To: me@my.address.com This is a test of the ... remailer... I sent this message to each of the following: hh@pmantis.berkeley.edu hh@cicada.berkeley.edu hh@soda.berkeley.edu phantom@mead.u.washington.edu 00x@uclink.berkeley.edu remailer@utter.dis.org I received the test message via the remailer@utter.dis.org quickly & without problems. I have yet to get the other messages, nearly a week later. With the exception of remailer@utter.dis.org, all of these have been habitually unresponsive to regular tests. I have been able to get the soda remaier to work once, & with the efforts of the remailer operator, was able to get the phantom remailer to work once. I have been unable to get the anonymus+info@charcoal.com remailer to accept mail after some six attempts. The Charcoal daemon bounces back the messages as coming to an unknown addressee. The Extropia PGPed remailer seems to work well, as does the hal@alumni.caltech.edu remailer. Nearly everything else seems very iffy. Which remailers claim to be able to mail directly to newsgroups? ********************************************************************* * <m..stirner@f28.n125.z1.fidonet.org> - PGP Key D30909 via servers * * > What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not <* * > warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit <* * > of resistance?

Hm...something funny is going on here. I test the remailers about once every other week and generally here from all of them! Can I try sending mail to you through each remailer? Maybe this will help figure out the ones which can't reach you.

As far as I know, none of the remailers mail directly to newsgroups. But, you can have them remail to an email-to-usenet gateway like group-name@cs.utexas.edu. There are others (pws.bull.com, decwrl's, demon); I'll find my list and send it. /-----------------------------------\ | Karl L.

I have always had difficulty sending directly to Fidonet... If you send to username%f1.n2.z3.fidonet.org@gator.rn.com it will usually go through, though. So by sending it through the remailer, then gator, then Fidonet, it should go. Chael -- Chael Hall nowhere@bsu-cs.bsu.edu, 00CCHALL@BSUVC.BSU.EDU, chall@bsu.edu (317) 776-4000 from 8 am - 5 pm CST
