Is there some way your javascript, running on the user's hard drive, could
format a message to be sent to a gateway, and send it through Tor, so that
it would make the trip from the user's hard drive, to whatever smtp
server was used, to the gateway, without the identity of the sender being
exposed along the way?

Is it even possible to set up a Tor node so that it could do this?

My thought is that people seem to like sending the anonymous message
immediately, without going through the remailer system, I guess because of
its perceived unreliablity and because of its latency. That's not the best
attitude for remaining anonymous, but would seem to be fairly ok if you're
protected by Tor.

Since I can't do it, maybe this gentleman's javascript utility can, or
maybe somebody who knows his stuff can create a web2news utility like
mine, which sends the message directly to his gateway.
