I have had problems with getting the same test routed through hh@soda
and phantom@u.washington. I have not tried dis.org! yet.

Uu> 1: hh@pmantis.berkeley.edu

#6 has worked for me. The others have not, though the hh@_berkeley
remailers will sometimes work if the message is first bounced through
another reliable remailer. Why this should be, I know not.
Sending the PGP-encrypted message & header to remail@extropia.wimsey.com
seems to work very well for losing those stupid footer IDs, & is usually
my first leg of multiple-bounce test transmissions.
BTW, I note that hal@alumni.caltech.edu has a different address in the
first batch of successful remailers. The address hal@alumni.caltech.edu
has worked well.

Thanks for your efforts!
