This file is a bit out of date.  I would suggest as did G. Boyd that
you check out his SERVERS file, it will be more up to date.  I took
the original file and modified it as I found servers that didn't
work.  I am not a big anon remailer so I didn't do a complete job.

Interbot service files are very easy to edit.  If you edit it and
add more active anon remailers that work the same send me a copy and
I can add it to the zip file.  Any one else who has service files
that they would like  to share send them too, just you the export
command.

>remailer?

As Jerel pointed out the [EMAIL PROTECTED] address
is a way of suppressing the Juno 'tag' or 'nag' line.  Juno adds
the ad at the bottom of emails.  This causes trouble with many of
the various accmail servers.  So the folks of the JunoACCMail list
have created an address that has one of the words, 'request', that
causes Juno not to add the tagline.  The mailbox at that add just
deletes all mail that it receives.  I included the add to many of
the service files so that they would not have problems with the
tagline.  If you are trying to send mail anonymously you wouldn't
want the receiver to know that you are sending it from Juno, thus
I added it to the service file.

PS I wasn't ignoring the original message.  I have been off on
vacation for 2 weeks and have been catching up on 10 different
mailing lists I am on.  that is 14 ACCMail digests, 14 Help-Net,
~10 JunoACCMail, 350+ individual messages from another,...etc.
Moral:  Be patient.  (Thanks Gerry and Jerel for the answers!)

Here is a simple 'crack' of it.  I have an Interbot service file for
the site.

http://www.alltheweb.com/cgi-bin/search?query=aaaa+bbbb+cccc+dddd

Where 'aaaa' etc. are the search words.  Include the '+' as needed.

Hello:

I get a readme file from [EMAIL PROTECTED], but almost all the content
in it

are "???????". Is that because my email client(lotus-notes) can't display
chinese

characters or other reasons? How can I solve it?

Nature of the beast:

UU-encoding, and "base64" encoding, use basicaly the same method to pass
8 bit data via a limited 7 bit path by encodinr each 3 8 bit bytes in to
4 characters from a set of 64, that hopefully will pass any restricting
SMTP gateways.  The two use different subsets of ASCII.  XX-encoding
(rarely seen on the net) uses an almost identical subset as "base64",
with two characters different, but the order is much different.  XX was
created to solve problems with some gateways that treated some UU
characters in special ways.

You will need to find a bulletin board that echoes FidoNet in your
area.

http://www.fidonews.org/findabbs/ will let you find a BBS if you fill
in the blanks of the form.

FidoNet is going to be Internet Email only.  Great for
ACCMAILERS.

Let me know how more I can help.
