I am still waiting for you to provide the source of statistics that you
used to determine what uses remailers are put to.

I still maintain that becasue of the nature of the true remailers, your
statement above is meaningless, unfounded and unprovable in extremis.

In order to prove such a statement you would have to have access to logs
that remailers do not keep, and information about remailer users that
remailer operators do not, in fact cannot request.

Granted, there are people who find ways to abuse remailers, however in
spite of that abuse, they serve a purpose, and because the nature of that
service is privacy there is a price to pay in that some will abuse it.  the
sytem is however designed so that it is actually not at all practical for
spammers or people wanting to post binaries.  yes, some really small files
will get through, but anything of meaningfull size will have major problems
with enough of its pieces arriving at the final hop for it to be
re-assembled and sent on.

Even if a remailer were to allow a klen of 2045k, that size message would
have to be broken into 2048K/29K = 71 29K messages, all of which would have
to arrive at the last hop remailer within a reletively short time so that
they could be reassembled and sent on.  but since no remailer has a klen
that high, the message would end up in the bit bucket.
