I tried sending a test message to the address indicated, and received it back
a day later, so sending email to this address does reach me. The funny part
is that I have never (to my knowledge) had any communication with
anon.penet.fi prior to receiving this email.
Questions:
1. How do I use this to SEND messages anonymously? Having an email address
with no obvious link to my identity is cool, but I would like to be able to
send as well as receive. I sent email to [email protected], but have
received no response yet.
2. Why was I chosen for this? How did anon.penet.fi find out my email
address? Is the NSA trying to lull me into a false sense of security in the
hope that I will use this account to violate ITAR?
3. Has anyone else on this list received unsolicited remailer accounts?
