This message is sent to you in response to an email that you sent to the Binski Remailer. This automated reply was triggered by the subject "remailer-help" contained in your email. If you did not send such an email, please ignore this message. This remailer is a free service that allows individuals including crime victims, domestic violence victims, persons in recovery, and others, such as those living under oppressive regimes, to communicate confidentially in a manner that ensures their privacy under even the most adverse conditions. This independent remailer uses the Mixmaster remailer software. It is highly recommended that you obtain a copy of the Mixmaster software to utilize this remailer. This particular remailer may offer other means of accessing the remailer service. If this remailer offers other means of accessing the remailer service, the means will be described later in this help file. However, only by using the Mixmaster client software will you assure the highest level of security against third-parties compromising your privacy. How to obtain the Mixmaster software: Mixmaster source code for FreeBSD, Linux, other variants of UNIX, and Win32: The first version of Mixmaster to allow RSA keys of 4096 bits is at https://www.sec3.net/www.zen19351.zen.co.uk/mixmaster302/ and without this feature your chains will not be able to use remailers with large keys. Keys of 1024 bits are less secure and there has been discussion about ending their use. If your operating system is a UNIX derivative, simply download and compile the client from the source code available at http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/mixmaster/ Mixmaster clients binaries for Win32 (Windows 98, NT, 2000, XP) Win32 users may wish to try one of the GUI applications that interface with Mixmaster: Omnimix: http://www.danner-net.de/om.htm Quicksilver: https://www.sec3.net/www.quicksilvermail.net/ These are all developed independently of the main Mixmaster distribution. Please do not contact the Mixmaster development team or the Administrator of the Binski Remailer with questions about this software. For more information about Mixmaster or to contribute to the development of Mixmaster, please see the following URL's: Official Mixmaster Project Site: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mixmaster/ The mailing list there is still usable although the rest of the project is neglected. General Information about Remailers and Remailer "how-to" Guides: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/privacy/anon-server/ **** Abuse Policy: Unfortunately, there will always be a very small percentage of individuals that choose to abuse the anonymity that this and similar systems worldwide afford to send otherwise unwelcome email. The Anonymous Remailer does not condone such messages, or their content, in any way. Just as the Post Office is unable to prevent abuse of the mail system as long as there are public mailboxes into which a person can drop a letter without including a return address, the Binski Remailer cannot preemptively prevent irresponsible individuals from using this system to send inappropriate messages. However, unlike the Post Office, this remailer enables you to assure that you will not be inconvenienced by users of this remailer in the future. To block the users of this remailer from sending email to your address, please send a message to containing the line destination-block echolot+help.75=1735180500=96642ea1@lion.openchaos.org anywhere in the body text of the email. You can simply reply to this message using your email program and send back this entire message for your current email address to be permanently blocked from users of the Anonymous Remailer. For additional information on this remailer's abuse policy, instructions on how to block more than one email address, and to reach the Anonymous Remailer operator, please send email to . Thank you for your interest in secure and private communications, -- The Binski Remailer Administrator
