Squirrel goes Mixmaster-only

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hello remailer users!

I'm sorry, but my ISP complained that the huge mail traffic for
squirrel overloaded their servers.  Effective immediately, my remailer
accepts only Mixmaster packets and is not listed in Raph's type-1
statistics anymore.  The operation of the nym server at weasel.owl.de
is not affected.


Regards,
Johannes

Hello remailer users!

I've solved the mail traffic problem with my provider and put
the type-1 remailer at squirrel back up.  But it will only remail
PGP-encrypted messages to reduce the convenience to spammers.

Accepting only encrypted mail should also enhance the security since
it is harder for attackers to identify which encrypted incoming mail
corresponds to which outgoing mail.

Raph, please put the Squirrel remailer

$remailer{"squirrel"} = "<mix@squirrel.owl.de> cpunk mix pgp hash latent cut ek"

on your list again and point out that it only accepts PGP messages.  Thanks.


If someone removed the PGP-key from their keyring,
here is it again (you can find it on the key servers too):

P.S.:

The type-1 remailer runs under the control of Mixmaster,
and the PGP-only mode is enforced by the following patch
to the Mixmaster source file Mix/Src/main.c:
