Which part of "it should be considered defunct, there are no active developers" don't you understand? It's dead, Jim!

i2pbote should be considered defunct. No active developers and a huge chunk of less than ideal legacy code.
The fact that there is a problem with the site is quite obvious. I have seen some recent changes from the team in their forks. It looks like the project has some kind of support. Why don't they merge them into the main repository? Perhaps this activity will revive the community.
So what about this point?

Reply to comment by z3d in email exchange in I2P by kitz
In my (limited) experience using i2pmail.org as a clearnet relay, I find that an expected email may not hit my @mail.i2p inbox until some hours later. I'm not certain if this delay is caused from the clearnet to I2P path or within the I2P network itself.
Still a very suitable and beneficial service, of course. But something to consider for time sensitive emails, as using that email address for something you may need a password reset on or email based auth-code that expires after XX minutes, you may find yourself in between a rock and a hard place.
EDIT: Disregard the above about it not being suitable for time-senstive emails. I just did a test, and received my clearnet email to my I2P inbox in about 5 minutes. In the past, it had taken hours, but in hindsight, the webmail inbox may have been cached or it could have just been a one-off fluke. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯?

Note that some mail servers or services may not play nice with i2pmail.org.
Can you tell me more about this point? Or where I can read about it?
It's really hit and miss, no golden rule. For the most part, things work fine, though if a service or remote mail server has i2pmail.org in their blacklist, then you might experience issues. Some services appear to treat i2pmail.org as they would a throwaway e-mail host.

mail.i2p works very well. I've used it for years to communicate with people in and out of the network.

Yes, it's alive and apparently in active development.
I'll take note. I was just confused by the emptiness on the forum.

Do not quite understand.
Is federation with other email servers inside I2P via SMTP is possible?
Or is it just a gateway to clearnet with clearnet federation?
In any case, this does not cancel the fact - monopoly of the service without alternative.
UPD: This is not a stone in your direction, rather a regret that there are no other similar services.

mail.i2p - it seems that the project does not respond to other servers via SMTP.
Internally, @mail.i2p is used, externally, @i2pmail.org. So when supplying an e-mail address for a clearnet service, use you@i2pmail.org as the reply address. Note that some mail servers or services may not play nice with i2pmail.org.
bote.i2p looks like it hasn't been updated for long time.

Is purplebote.i2p alive?
Yes, it's alive and apparently in active development. See: https://github.com/PurpleBote/pboted and/or jump on the I2P IRC network and have a chat with polistern, the lead developer.

mail.i2p relays mail TO and FROM the internet as well. Check hq.postman.i2p for more information on this feature.

The official i2pd registrar is located here: http://reg.i2p/ and is currently the only registrar that validates hostnames to ensure the submitter owns the host they're registering.

In theory MuWire could still work though someone needs run relay for peer discovery and code needs to be rebuild to support that relay :)

Reply to comment by takeheart in New fleet of i2pd 0.9.46 routers by DcscZx5idox
sorry for stale bump, but there is also quite a few routers by SUNY Brockport, as well as a CRT in the installer. Not sure what a state funded college would have interest in I2P for. Not sure I am going to remain on here much longer. Asked in IRC and people said it could be anyone. Hard to believe them when all the IPs go back to AS' belonging to the college.

Reply to Questions about GOSTcoin by bolaris
GOST is a Russian standards system, pretty much like ANSI is in the US. According to their website, their coin uses GOST standards for cryptogrpahy, therefore is named after it. Their subreddit was banned 2 months ago and they still have the dead link on their site, so I suppose it's pretty much inactive.
You might find more info from their github page: https://github.com/GOSTSec/

I should try this I2P stuff. I have this site's clearnet and TOR address bookmarked, but I haven't tired using I2P.

Here's a link to an archive of eepsites that I stumbled upon. However, it does not sort them by category.

Hm, I guess?
I2P rotates your identities all the time so I wouldn't worry that much about it.

irc.echelon.i2p currently has issues. temporarily removing this server from your irc client tunnel config will make the problem disappear!

Reply to comment by iHumanDrone in I2P+ 0.9.50+ released! by z3d
Yes, the project is very much alive, actively developed, with a growing userbase.
Some of the differences between I2P+ and I2P include:
- 4 default console themes, 7 i2psnark themes, support for update-persistent css overrides and hiDPI screens
- renovated console and webapp user interface, with additional features
- in-console help section with pages for both new and experienced users
- various under-the-hood performance enhancements

Is the project still active in terms of users and contributors?
Also what's the difference with the original i2p?
