  Anonymous remailer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are Cypherpunk anonymous remailers, Mixmaster anonymous remailers, and nym servers, among others which differ in how they work, in the policies they adopt, and in the type of attack on anonymity of email they can (or are intended to) resist.
Anonymity in the latter case is more easily addressed by using any of several methods of anonymous publication.
Some remailers forward their anonymized email to still other remailers, and only after several such hops is the email actually delivered to the intended address.

A remailer is an address through which an electronic message passes before continuing the rest of its journey to its actual destination.
