Mixminion: an Anonymous Remailer

Frankly speaking, I do not have any idea what an anonymous remailer is. I know, being a tech blog, these kind of words can be blasphemous but I am sorry, I do not feel any shame in admitting this that I do not know about a thing, but I will now read about it and try to know what is it.

Till the time I read about anonymous remailers, you can check out Mixminion; a Type III Anonymous Remailer. And if you know a lot about them, please do tell me something about them in the comments.
