The Oppressed

I dunno but I think most posters to apas live in free countries and use remailers
as a hobby. I live in a totally despotic country and use them to try and implement
change. The ISP's of this country block sites with web based remailer interfaces,
and you can't use Quicksilver because SMTP is blocked too (or if it is available
there is an elaborate personal registration requirement so they know who sends what).
The only option is to hand-roll type I messages and send them thru Yahoo or something.
Thanks remailer ops, you are appreciated.

Hash: RIPEMD160

but you can also use Mixmaster!

just configure it so that it writes outgoing mail into file in pool directory instead of sending it by SMTP
(put "SENDMAIL outfile" in mix.cfg and remove SMTPRELAY if it is there).
then write email to send in some file email.txt
then
mix -s subject -t user@address -l remailer1,remailer2,remailer3,remailer4 < email.txt
mix -S
then in pool directory you will find a message that you can cut and paste into Yahoo or something.

Even in so-called "free" countries, there are oppressed minorites
or a need for people to use remailers.

One suggestion: get JBN 1.3.6, and create your messages there
("run" but don't send them).

The messages, after creation, will exist thusly in the directory
"JBN\books":

message.bk (original text message)
message.bk0 (message headers)
message.bk1 (encrypted message)

open up message.bk0 and message.bk1 (the encrypted message
and the headers) and use that to paste into yahoo.

This will enable you to use a program to automate the process,
JBN 1.3.6, and yet get around your SMTP problems.

(Does anyone know how to do this with JBN2?)

It's been awhile since I used JBN2, but IIRC one of the tabs in "Sender
Profiles" (I hope that's the right term) is called "UNIX". This 'mails' all
completed email to a file on your computer. You can open that file with Notepad
(I think) and copy to Yahoo. This has the advantage that you can leave JBN2 full
automagic, rather than carefully following it step-by-step.

Warning: the file has some odd stuff at the head of each letter that you have to
make sure not to copy.
