- 29. What is an anonymous remailer?
-
- An anonymous remailer is a system on the Internet that allows you to send
- e-mail anonymously or post messages to Usenet anonymously.
- You apply for an anonymous ID at the remailer site. Then, when you send a
- message to the remailer, it sends it out from your anonymous ID at the
- remailer. No one reading the post will know your real account name or host
- name. If someone sends a message to your anonymous ID, it will be forwarded
- to your real account by the remailer.
