My reading is, that it is an email server that uses tor to provide anonymity. Do you have to use an email client? There is no tor browser web gui for writing and reading emails?

I have created an account. Why cannot the server provide imap, but only pop?

If you use an email client, your tor anonymity is enabled if you enter the tor server account data when you create an email client email account?

I think you should use this OnionMail account with IceDove and TorBirdy addon.

You'll have to start Tor service before with the RootTerminal by using this command (check if Tor is installed in synaptic)

# sudo service tor start

to stop it :

# sudo service tor stop

You can check if this works by sending you an email with your usual email account to your OnionMail account.

TorBirdy can be slow by the experiment I had with it.

Are you sure about torbirdy? You do not think that creating an email account in thunderbird an entering the onionmail account data, provides a tor connections to the onionmail server?
