It's time to get cracking on this crisis.
The Cable companies may come to our rescue. Even old fuddy-duddy Cablevision is going to be offering connections this year. If those connections are characterised merely as physical connections, that could offer legal protections. My contrib for now will be to draft an all purpose response letter to respond to civilian and official complaints concerning remailer abuse.

To my knowledge there exists 3 packages which allow you to run a remailer out of an account. Matt Ghio's remailer, mixmaster (Lance Cottrell?), and the simple package available on ftp.csua.berkeley.edu, which derives from Eric and Hal's original code. c2.org, of course, welcomes remailers. -- sameer Voice: 510-841-2014 Network Administrator Pager: 510-321-1014 Community ConneXion: The NEXUS-Berkeley Dialin: 510-549-1383 http://www.c2.org (or login as "guest") sameer@c2.org

Can anyone give an overview of the remailer packages that are currently available? What features and differences do they have, and where to get them?

As it happens, I just signed up for a SLIP account at Best. I'm using their standard dial-up service, but they also offer a dedicated 28.8 connection for $450 setup and $60/mo. -- Mark Chen chen@intuit.com 415/329-6913 finger for PGP public key D4 99 54 2A 98 B1 48 0C CF 95 A5 B0 6E E0 1E 1D
