What??? You want to write a program that will "anonymize" email? While
this sounds interesting, I'm curious: what the hell for? It sounds more
like a spamming thing than anything. Or something to send out other
"toxic" stuff (computer viruses?).

But it's interesting anyway so let me ask away:

How will things "flow"? Will the MTA receive mail via SMTP and then as the
middle-person replace all references to the sender foo with some bogus,
randomly generated, sender xyz? Or will the mail be sent locally (via
mailtools? mailx?)?

If you want to write a program that will simply send anonymous email, this
should be trivial. Just write a program that will connect to the SMTP port
and send a bogus MAIL FROM.
