Does the bitmessage network work and how anonymous is it?

Question

Encryption

I put the Bitseal client on my tablet and sent messages from it and to it.
It's been the second day and nothing.
According to Google, messages on the network are stored for only two days.
And also how to understand that other network members should know my ip address to contact me

is, if I have one ip for half the city, then I don’t can I use?
And what happens if I'm behind NAT?

** how to understand that other network members must know my ip address to contact me **
you and ip are not connected in any way. it is possible to know that you are using the network, but which addresses respond to your node is impossible.
anonymity is good for private messages, but there are some nuances with vats.
works for nat.
2.5 days by default. undelivered messages are then retried at increasing intervals.
