You can use a PGP-encoding remailer such as nym.alias.net.
It's difficult, but possible. Send any letter to < help @ nym.alias.net >
and request http://www.stack.nl/~galactus/remailers/nym.html

A DOS version of PGP program necessary for using such remailers:
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.
Example of confiruration file (you must encrypt it by PGP):


Config:
From: pedrocastro
Nym-Commands: create? +acksend
Nym-Commands: name="Pedro Castro Alvarez"
Public-Key:
-----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK-----

(see above, from the "Config:" line to the "Latent-Time:" line)
in a file file.txt

6. Encrypt:

pgp -seat +force file.txt nym.alias.net -z abc -u pedrocastro -o file.cry

7. Send the letter to < config @ nym.alias.net >.

8. When you receive a letter with the words "you must confirm",
send any letter directly to the specified long address beginning from
"confirm+" and ending with "@nym.alias.net". Then you must receive letter
with words "Your new reply block has been confirmed and installed.
Your mail alias is currently active".

Good antiviruses search inside zip-archives too. But good antiviruses
don't give so many false positives.
