in PR 25573, with some cleanup by me. Mixminion is a communication security application for electronic mail messages. Its purpose is to deny an adversary the ability to determine who is communicating with whom and to provide the closely related service of anonymous communication. It does this by sending messages through a series of servers. Messages going into and out of each server are encrypted. Each server keeps a pool of messages. When a message comes in it is placed in the pool. Messages sent out from the pool are difficult to correlate with the messages going in. This process is called "mixing." Each server reduces the ability of the adversary to determine the origin of a message. Chaining the servers further reduces this ability and contains the damage caused by compromised servers. The chain of servers is chosen by the Mixminion software running on the user's machine. See http://mixminion.net for a complete description.
