It must seem a thankless task sometimes, I'm sure. One thing I noticed
about penet.fi's processing of messages is that it at least scrapes off
the trailing addresses automatically tacked on at the end of every
outgoing message leaving all Fido BBSs. A test message sent via the
babani remailer arrived anonymously, but with all three lines of the
address footer (see below) attached. Hardly anonymous...
