REMAIL: problems

[Karl Barrus]

There must be some correlation between my weekend trips and other
events.  Last time I went out of town was "Cliper weekend" :-)

I've tested the remailers with unencrypted requests, and have received
these replies (within seconds, I might add):

soda.berkeley.edu
cicada.berkeley.edu
pmantis.berkeley.edu
bsu-cs.bsu.edu
alumni.caltech.edu
rosebud.ee.uh.edu
mead.u.washington.edu
shell.portal.com
tamsun.tamu.edu
tamaix.tamu.edu       <-- note, 'Return-Path: remail at tamaix.tamu.edu'
                                'From: remail at tamsun.tamu.edu'
                          just in case you see the from line and think tamaix
                          isn't working

So I'll wait for the others (rebma, extropia, utter, uclink, jarthur)
and then try them all with encrypted requests.

A while ago I had a script test all the remailers once a week - I
wasn't able to have a cron entry, but I used the 'at' command to
schedule the mailing of prepared messages and itself every week.
Maybe I'll start that up again since it would help isolate problems if
a remailer doesn't respond, especially if twice in a row.
