Nymservers provide cryptographically + protected, fully anonymous accounts for both sending and receiving + e-mail. + + While premail can be used as a stand-alone application, it works + best when integrated with your mailer. Currently, premail is + integrated completely seamlessly and transparently only with + Netscape 3.0's built-in mailer. It works fairly well with [24]Pine + 3.94 or later, as well (plain PGP is supported, but decryption of + MIME-based e-mail encryption protocols is still missing). + Transparent integration of outgoing mail only is supported for any + mailer in which the mail sending program can be configured, + including Berkeley mail, most emacs mailers, and [25]MH. For these + mailers, you can decode messages with a single command. |
