> Anybody have a link handy for anonymous email other than anonimizer?

You could learn to use anonymous remailers.  A good client for the 
beginner is Quicksilver.

The other possibility is to use google and put in the terms "web 
mixmaster" which will get several web-based mixmaster remailers to 
pop up.  You seriously want to use mixmaster remailers rather than 
Type 1 cypherpunk remailers if you want true anonymity.  Hint:  
http://anonymous.to is a Type 1 cypherpunk remailer.

Further hint:  The other three "anonymous mail" web sites that seeker 
mentioned force you to rely on the goodwill of the service provider 
not to reveal your IP address.  All that blind-mail and manicmail do 
is strip the headers from your mail; you don't know what kinds of 
logs that they're keeping.  Pocamo says that they support free 
speech, but a careful reading of their pages indicates that they will 
turn over information to whatever authorities when prodded.

Or you could even pay anonymizer.com $5 a month and get not only the 
anonymous email but also anonymous surfing.  Even anonymizer keeps 
logs, but only for a couple of days according to their statement.

If you really want truly anonymous email, the only proven way to go 
about it is to learn to use a mixmaster remailer.  And if you must 
use a web interface--which is clearly less secure--at least make sure 
that the interface uses SSL.  (That's when you see a closed lock icon 
or something similar in your browser.)
