I acknowledge your "IF", Tim, but I disagree that we should accept a situation
where users cannot send bug reports using email. Of course, to do so they need
_some_ way of sending email, but it does not follow that they need to use Emacs
as that way. They should be able to compose the bug report in Emacs and send it
any way they want and can.
