(NOTE: 11/12/96, anon.penet.fi is no longer in service. See issue 12 for more detials.)


To remail through the anon.penet.fi remailer:
First send a message to the autoresponder at help@anon.penet.fi. Read the help file that is e-mailed to you, and learn guidelines and rules for use.

Then send an e-mail to ping@anon.penet.fi. This will e-mail you back an anonymous address of the form anXXX@anon.penet.fi, where the Xs are digits.

You then set up a password for your anonymous account. You do so by sending an e-mail in this fashion:




    To: password@anon.penet.fi
    Subject: 

In the message body, write only your intended password, which can be any string of digits and/or characters.

Once you have done this, you are ready to use the account in this fashion:

    To: anon@anon.penet.fi
    Subject: (whatever you wish)

In the body, begin with the lines:

    X-Anon-Password: (your password)
    X-Anon-To: (whomever you wish, in the form 
     recipient@destination.com OR
     this.is.a.newsgroup.name@anon.penet.fi)


Skip a line, then begin your message... The server will completely anonymize your message, and will either e-mail it or post it to Usenet, as you instruct...
