Hi,

I took a look at schleuder before filing the ITP and they are very
similar in scope.  I'm not a user of schleuder, but key difference I see
is the implementation language - schleuder is written atop Ruby, whereas
gpg-remailer written in C++, so perhaps gpg-remailer is bit
lighter-weight (although I have no evidence for that claim), and thus
perhaps gpg-remailer is preferable on very small system.

So it's fair question.  I think they're quite similar.

Cheers,
tony
