Yes, I have confirmed that.

Additionally for users who did not set up email system, I said that
form can be used to submit information, which in turn is again
converted to email. A form submission can be anonymous, or with email
address again, but email system need not be set.

I am not using Windows, but there I think on Windows mostly. I doubt
GNU/Linux systems all have set up email transport, but they would
rather have WWW access. Is it now clearer?
