+You may also have compiled Mutt to co-operate with Mixmaster, an
+anonymous remailer. Mixmaster permits you to send your messages
+anonymously using a chain of remailers. Mixmaster support in Mutt is for
+mixmaster version 2.04 (beta 45 appears to be the latest) and 2.03.
+It does not support earlier versions or the later so-called version 3 betas,
+of which the latest appears to be called 2.9b23.
+</p><p>
+To use it, you'll have to obey certain restrictions. Most
+important, you cannot use the <code class="literal">Cc</code> and <code class="literal">Bcc</code> headers. To tell
+Mutt to use mixmaster, you have to select a remailer chain, using
+the mix function on the compose menu.
+</p><p>
+The chain selection screen is divided into two parts. In the
+(larger) upper part, you get a list of remailers you may use. In
+the lower part, you see the currently selected chain of remailers.
+</p><p>
+You can navigate in the chain using the <code class="literal"><chain-prev></code> and
+<code class="literal"><chain-next></code> functions, which are by default bound to the left
+and right arrows and to the <code class="literal">h</code> and <code class="literal">l</code> keys (think vi
+keyboard bindings). To insert a remailer at the current chain
+position, use the <code class="literal"><insert></code> function. To append a remailer behind
+the current chain position, use <code class="literal"><select-entry></code> or <code class="literal"><append></code>.
+You can also delete entries from the chain, using the corresponding
+function. Finally, to abandon your changes, leave the menu, or
+<code class="literal"><accept></code> them pressing (by default) the <code class="literal">Return</code> key.
+</p><p>
+Note that different remailers do have different capabilities,
+indicated in the %c entry of the remailer menu lines (see
+<a class="link" href="reference.html#mix-entry-format" title="3.143. mix_entry_format">$mix_entry_format</a>). Most important is
+the “<span class="quote">middleman</span>” capability, indicated by a capital “<span class="quote">M</span>”: This
+means that the remailer in question cannot be used as the final
+element of a chain, but will only forward messages to other
+mixmaster remailers. For details on the other capabilities, please
+have a look at the mixmaster documentation.
