I found a couple of papers on anonymous protocols that I haven't seen
mentioned here before. I'll list them for people who might be interested:
Cryptographic Defense Against Traffic Analysis by Rackoff and Simon.
http://pct.microsoft.com/papers/ta.ps
gives a proof of security for a mix-net like protocol.
A. Pfitzmann, B. Pfitzmann, M. Waidner: ISDN-MIXes - Untraceable
Communication with Very Small Bandwidth Overhead; Proc. Kommunikation
in verteilten Systemen, Feb. 1991, Mannheim, Informatik-Fachberichte
267, Springer-Verlag, Heidelberg 1991, 451-463.
describes a protocol for anonymous telephone calls.
