Stock wordpress install? Come on guys
yep, it's a bare-bones design. The purpose if for you to communicate through email with other users. The blog is merely for posting topics.
You really need an example on the homepage. I read the opening description and still don't feel like I understand how it works. What kind of mail would I get? Would I be able to turn it off? You say 'social network' - so, do I have friends, or is this just a public discussion forum?

I would suggest you set up a throwaway yahoo email and email the site. I understand it may be confusing but all discussion happens through email and the focus shouldn't be the homepage. We can demo thru email once you set up a throwaway account. In addition, you can use the throwaway email to actually use the site if you have an aversion to using your personal email.

That's asking me for a lot of effort without giving me much of a reason.

There is still a ton of information that you could provide to the new users visiting your home page. It is your job to convince the users to send that first email. Suggesting that people create throw away email accounts does not sound like the best user on-boarding process. This is where examples, or better descriptions on your home page would help.

It is likely...but we don't want to weed emails in order to preserve the experience. You're still gonna get a lot of insightful discussion. But unfortunately, spam would come with the territory.
Understandable. Wouldn't that mean that spam will roll very quickly to many email accounts? Wouldn't spam engines start picking up application emails as spam emails(assuming once some discussion goes rogue with spammers the email receivers mark the conversation as spam)? Or am i missing something here.
I can't wait for the social network that's conducted entirely through beer at a pub.

Thanks for your response. Just select from those email address that hold potential for interesting discussion and communicate with them directly. Forwarding enables you to pick and choose from people dropping in to comment on the topic.
