I believe there is a difference between knowing who an "anonymous"
e-mailer is and wanting to avoid disclosing such information... and
operating a service where finding out is not possible (at least without
invasive means).

Its the old story, you cannot be subpoenaed to reveal information that
you simply do not have. Whether or not you are permitted to operate a
system so structured is another matter.
