-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I am using PGPTools to handle all the crypto functions in the second generation remailer that I have written. All the copies of PGPTools that I have found seem to be set up to compile on SUN workstations only.

That's interesting, because I developed it under Linux and MS/DOS, and there was a lot of trouble at the beginning with it not running on big-endian machines. It sounds like whoever "fixed" it for sparcs broke it for little-endian machines. The original should still be on ftp.csn.net; get it there and it should work.

Mixmaster is both a remailer and a front end, and therefor must run on many different platforms. I have been able to compile PGPTools on Linux and FreeBSD, but PGPTools produces invalid RSA blocks. If you (or anyone else reading this) have ported PGPTools to other platforms could you send me the source and makefile, or point me to them. If not, could you help me do it, the source code is a tangle, and it will take me a long time to do on my own (I am a brute force programer, not a C wizard).

Get the original, test it, and post the results. Some people have asked if I am still around. Yes, I am, and I'm thinking about a major update of PGPTools. The update would involve getting out any persistent bugs I can find, cleaning up the code and making it completely reentrant, and replacing all 2.3a modules with 2.6.x modules so it is patent-safe. It also needs some kind of exception handling for disk errors and the like. A pass-through function for the disk access calls, and a way of freeing all memory before a longjmp to bail out, for example. Before doing this, I need to hear from the PGP development team. There have been rumors of an upcoming PGP API, something similar to PGPTools. If this is the case, let me know so I don't waste time writing an incompatible version. If this is not the case, let me know so I can get started. More information about NexusBucks, please. Is it for real? How many coins in circulation? Have any services been bought with them yet? What is the address of the Magic Money server? Is it fully automatic, or are messages being manually processed?
