Dearest Cypherpunks, I am really sorry about the remailer problem. It is unique to the configuration of anon.penet.fi and nowhere@bsu-cs.bsu.edu. In conjunction, they caused all of the anonymous postings to cypherpunks to be echoed. Anon.penet.fi inserts the "X-Anonymously-To" header field into outbound messages. Nowhere@bsu-cs.bsu.edu searches for "X-Anonymously-To" header fields and auto-remails to that address. I just changed the program so that the only header fields it will respond to are "X-Anon-To" and "Request-Remailing-To." Personally, I think that anon.penet.fi should use a different name than X-Anonymously-To *or* put it at the end of the message instead of within the header. I admit that my remailer was "broken" in the terms of others, so I have fixed it. This problem would have been fixed sooner if I had realized what was going on, but since I foolishly thought I didn't need to keep logs for my remailer anymore, I never saw the incoming messages, just the ones that cypherpunks@toad.com mailed back to me with *my* account name on them. I am terribly sorry for the inconvenience. Chael Hall -- Chael Hall nowhere@bsu-cs.bsu.edu, 00CCHALL@BSUVC.BSU.EDU, CHALL@CLSV.Charon.BSU.Edu (317) 285-3648 after 5 pm EST
