Are you able to send emails to the clearnet? If not, why not use I2P which has email built into the Java client?

    PeerBox doesn't send emails to the clearnet and that's by design. The whole point is to stay fully P2P with no server involved at any point. Sending to clearnet email would mean going through external infrastructure, which defeats the purpose. As for I2P, Tor was chosen because it has a much larger network of relays, which means stronger anonymity and better reliability.
