Re: Improvement of remailer security
->\ I think the recent death-threat-to-Clinton desaster has made clear that the remailers we have are not very secure, mainly because incoming and outgoing mail seems to be monitored at many sites. <- Wait, the threat was posted with a remailer? I heard about the threat, not the remailer.... Details? -uni- (Dark)

No, it was done using port 25. However, it would be a good idea to block whitehouse.gov for any of you who run remailers. Appearantly, this wasn't the first time it's happened, but it is the highest profile case. According to several people here, someone at CMU pulled a similar stunt last year. He didn't get arrested, but the SS had a nice long chat with him. Appearantly the SS investigates dozens of such prank mails every year...
