Modulo the recent discussion of how some remailers treat traffic from other known remailers differently than mail from unknown addresses, remailers don't need to know about each other.
If they don't know know about each other, and there is nothing on the machines which suggest they no about each other, it's difficult for a law abiding remailer operator to become inadvertantly linked to a non-lawabiding one. Of course, IANAL, so we're going to hear about 'happy fun court' not being amused (sigh...)
