Re: Merry Christmas, Cyberanarchists
Sending mail to anXXXXX@anon.penet.fi compromises your anon.penet.fi id, unless you're careful to use passwords, and if you're sending the message directly, you can switch the format to naXXXXX@anon.penet.fi. But, - Does the cypherpunks mailing list have any anXXXXX@anon.penet.fi subscribers, or is Eric careful to switch them to naXXXXX in the list? - Is there any way to tell? - If mail is forwarded, either by something like cypherpunks that patches up header lines, or by someone else (e.g. a forger, or some cypherpunks subscriber, or somebody forwarding their mail to their anXXXXX account), will that also compromise the id, or will that just compromise the id of the forwarder, if known? - How good is anon.penet.fi about checking this stuff for non-passworded users?

Once we had one, and everyone who posted got assigned an ID. Now I'm careful to add them as naXXXXX.

If people aren't getting an ID assigned when they post, there's no problem. Eric
