 Are you n3td3v ?In the spirit of full-disclosure I support anyone's [doesn't matter if
it is a troll like infosecbofh or netdev] right to express their
opinion, but turning abusive should be a reason enough to be kicked off
any public mailing list. I have already filtered out these people, but
I still get to read some of the abusive emails because some others feel
that these people deserve a reply.

Can the moderator please issue a warning to these abusive trolls? Also
is it too much to ask the "great security minds" in this list to
contain their need to reply to these trolls?

"A simple drop box in the lunchroom" will not work when you have a
client that is big enough to have branches distributed all over the
place. 

Anon Email is the best solution for this - you don't have to manually 
Check the boxes in all the locations with the headache of keeping the
Contents of the box classified.

And if you had read my first email *and* comprehended what I had asked
you would have not being writing the mail that I am responding to.

You must be a mind reader - you just read my mind. And google search shows 
Some email providers giving out this service for about US$ 89.99.

Maybe that is the best solution after all... 

You don't break your security policy and the auditors are also happy.

*In the para 4*
"Protecting whistleblowers is an essential component of an ethical
and open work environment."

*In para 6* <- this is the one that you want
"Provide Employees Multiple Avenues to Report Concerns"

 While employees will hopefully feel comfortable raising concerns
 directly with their supervisors, many employees are reluctant to
 raise concerns with line management for fear of retaliation,
 especially where their concerns pertain to unethical or illegal
 conduct by their line managers. Therefore, nonprofits should provide
 several options for employees to raise concerns, including the
 option of raising a concern anonymously.
---
If you read the last line in para 6 you will find that anon mailbox
is a requirement for SOX compliance.

And mailbox was ment for email Michael :)

But I think that "with a post and some concrete" mailbox will be
Indeed be far more secure.

IANAL, But IMO use an Intranet web page that allows employees to submit
anonymous html post to the web server via html.  Now if your security
policy is pervasive then surely auditing is enabled on all your systems,
thus removing any anonymity this would have provided.  Have you
considered, dare I say, outsourcing?  I only say this since part of the
requirement calls for the company to provide sufficient anonymity to
individuals reporting issues.  By the way the SOX whistleblowers
requirements have already been challenged in court so there might be
precedence on what is sufficient.

Again, not specifying email.  A simple drop box in the lunchroom
