nym.alias.net and other remailers (nymservers) of that type always
remail letters back to the user without Subject at all. Header of
incoming letter is sent to the user in the body of remailed letter.
Send any letter to
help{a}nym.alias.net
and request
http://www.stack.nl/~galactus/remailers/nym.html

Some time ago list of remailers cold be retrieved from
any of two pages updated daily:
http://anon.efga.org/Remailers/TypeIList/
http://www.publius.net/rlist.html
but may be one of these two places is defunct or gives obsolete info.

A DOS version of PGP program necessary for using such nymservers:
ftp://ftp.pgpi.com/pub/pgp/2.x/pc/msdos/pgp263i.zip
It can be used also in DOS window/session of Windows 3.1, 95, 98
and some of newer Windows.

You needn't to use Type-1 remailers when you use a nymserver.
If you use -cryptrecv option then letters to you will not be encrypted,
but you still must encrypt letters to nymservers.
Example of confiruration file (you must encrypt it by PGP):

Config:
From: t-alithary
Nym-Commands: create? +acksend -cryptrecv
Nym-Commands: name="Dr.Thair Alithary"

You don't want to understand that what you requested at first
will cause serious inconvenience for all other users worldwide.

I send 9 URLs in one letter to a www4mail (if I send more than one
letter to one server at once then part of letters often is ignored).
If I specify Subject then every of 9 replies will have same Subject.
How can I distinguish them?

My mail client (for UUCP protocol, russified, so I can't use other
mail clients) can't change Subject when I move a letter from inbox
to an archive folder.

It's easier for you. You don't care how it'll be for others.

The ISP can filter by email address in From, so "innocent" letters
will not be affected at all. Now the filter has two items
"www." and "http://";, for blocking by "From:" less than a dozen
items is enough: "www4mail@", "boix@ernestoperez", "binky@", "ftpmail@",
"grabpage", "getweb@", "web2mail", "pagegetter", "webgate@"
(case-insensitive). Not difficut, as you see.

What is default?  Many users don't know English well and don't
know of this new command.
