Associate a unique random number or string with each e-mail address and
use this outside the server to identify users. An MD5 hash of the
mail address might be a good candidate for such a string but then it's
possible for attackers to verify if someone they know the address of, has
made specific comments. So part of the anonymity is gone then.
