   The Onion Courier Mixnet uses with it's client random adaptive padding   
   when sending messages, so that third parties do not know what is send,   
   compared to fixed padding payloads. Once the messages enters the pool   
   padding will be removed and then fixed size padding at each hop will   
   be applied.

   Chain length is up to five hops, because this is IMHO enough for   
   Tor Hidden Services circuits, when run by different entities.

   The Onion Courier Mixnet, compared to the Mixmaster and YAMN Mixnet,   
   is totally decentralized and anonymous mix nodes can communicate with   
   public Tor Hidden Service mix nodes to form different chains.   
      
   > - remailer mix pools of possibly hundreds of messages   
      
   The standard setting for an Onion Courier Mixnode is 1000 messages   
   for the pool.   
      
   > - with variable latencies of up to several hours   
      
   The Onion Courier Mixnet has per hop standard latency between five to   
   20 minutes, so with five hops you get a maximum of 100 minutes. Messages   
   are choosen randomly when sent.   
      
   > - standard SMTP communication, optionally through Tor hidden services   
      
   Onnion Courier uses modern http communication via Tor Hidden Services.   
      
   > - client-side cover traffic   
      
   Same, but not automatically sent, like YAMN does when sending a message.   
   Users have to do this explicity, so that third parties do not know if   
   the user is sending a dummy message or a real one.   
      
   > - client access through Tor to hide remailer activities   
      
   The Onion Courier Mixnet works exclusively as Tor Hidden Service   
   Mixnet and has Tor Hidden Service endpoint servers for clearnet   
   communication, which are not mix nodes but do not store or log   
   messages, but are sending messages directly to clearnet Usenet   
   or email addresses. Users themselves have their own endpoint   
   (Tor Hidden Service) server to receive messages, therefore   
   avoiding classic nym server usage, hosted by third parties.

   Besides the points above. Messages entering the pool are encrypted with   
   24 hrs rotating keys, in RAM, which are memguard protected. So in case   
   third parties would look at the RAM pool (not a RAM disk) they would only   
   see encrypted blobs with equal size.   
      
   The Onion Courier Mixnet does also not log messages, like it is possible   
   with Mixmaster and YAMN MTA's and has no debugging log option like YAMN has.   
      
   The Onion Courier Mixnet CLI client works on smartphones too. One could   
   also run a mix node on his smartphone.   
      
   Pinger services are not needed because the client can ping mix nodes   
   directly.   
      
   Message size, the user can type, is 20 KB and with the ocsend client, not   
   using mix nodes, one can send very large files to Onion Courier Mixnet home   
   servers.   
      
   Running an own Onion Courier Mixnet for family and friends is very   
   easy, compared to Mixmaster or YAMN, because you do not need to   
   register a domain, do not have to set-up postfix and you do not need   
   to monitor your mix node, because there is nothing to see when one is   
   running, compared to  Mixmaster and YAMN possible MTA logs and open   
   pools at an exit remailer to see the final destination.   
      
   All in all the Onion Courier Mixnet, compared to the 30 years old   
   Mixmaster and 10 years old YAMN remailer Network, is a modern alternative   
   to classic remailing and even to the modern Nym Mixnet.
