I wouldn't say that it is pointless. M-x report-emacs-bug creates a buffer
with appropriate To: email, subject, and body with useful info about your
emacs version and environment.

I cannot send emails from within emacs because of the way the ports are set
by my company sysadmin.

But I still do M-x report-emacs-bug, copy everything and email everything
out using Gmail.

An example: https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=23460
