My favorite remailer, Mailexpire, has apparently pulled the plug (again.) Pity. It was a great tool to prevent those who would abuse my privacy from doing so.

What it did was simple: you signed up for a temporary email address, which would stay alive for some short period of time, from a few minutes to a week or so. After the time limit expired, it would decay into an invalid address. It was great for signing up with a web site that required you to register so they could spam you senseless.
