You need not to use that form interface to do what you say.
By e-mail address, I mean Name <m-hhhhhh-hhhhhh at messages.openstreetmap.org>
with which two persons can send (real) e-mail to each other through 
OSM.org without knowing their real e-mail address.  It's that address 
that a button could send without having to send someone a Web form 
message asking him 'reply' to know that address and start using real e-mail.
Same for e-bay.

It seems obvious to me.
