Thanks for trying Freemail!
This is the first release of Freemail, and so may (read: does) have bugs that I haven't found yet. Please do report them at http://bugs.freenetproject.org/.
Using Freemail
==============
You can compile from source:
./gradlew clean test jar
run with --newaccount <account name> to create an account, eg:
Once you've done one of those steps, create an account (replace java -jar with however you run jar files on your system):
java -jar Freemail.jar --newaccount fred
Use --passwd <account> <passwd> to set your password
java -jar Freemail.jar --passwd fred fredspassword
Run:
java -jar Freemail.jar
(You can also specify the address (host) and port of your Freenet node
using -h and -p respectively, if they are not the defaults).
Set up your email client to point at IMAP port 3143 and SMTP port 3025.
Feel free to Freemail me on dave@dbkr.freemail! If that doesn't work, my real email address is dbkr@freenetproject.org.
Good luck!
Building Freemail on Guix

To build on Java 8 with all system dependencies declared, use:
guix shell --pure sed which bash coreutils icedtea icedtea:jdk -- bash -c 'JAVA_HOME=$GUIX_ENVIRONMENT ./gradlew jar'
