Mixmaster anonymous remailer

<h2 id="history">History</h2>
<p>Mixmaster was originally written by Lance Cottrell, and was maintained by <a href="/facts/Len_Sassaman/M8MXvHgk">Len Sassaman</a>. Peter Palfrader is the current maintainer. Current Mixmaster software can be compiled to handle <a href="/facts/Cypherpunk_anonymous_remailer/uER8HES5">Cypherpunk</a> messages as well; they are needed as reply blocks for <a href="/facts/Nym_server/xMJANRtw">nym servers</a>.
</p><p>Support for Mixmaster was removed from the Neomutt fork of the <a href="/facts/Mutt_(email_client)/touyN3AY">Mutt mail client</a> in 2024 because the project did not seem active anymore.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2"><sup>2</sup></a>
