BitStamp.net does not allow anyone to register using tormail account.
This is a bit disconcerting and I decided to send them an email and ask for official answer.

I personally think it is a bit strange as tormail if used properly, just like bitcoin, provides a good layer on anonymity.
Waiting response.
Maybe because they have to comply with Know Your Costumer policies...
I don't think they can have anonymous users...
Maybe but what about people who respect their privacy ?
Privacy and anonymity are different things, and they have to comply with privacy policies also, Facebook got into a lot of trouble in EU because of this, EU directives on data protection are quite rigorous and Bitstamp is an European company.
