I agree that this template text need to be improved, and appreciate
the suggestions.  Both the suggestions need more work, though.

First of all, the default for _new_ installations of
popularity-contest (from version 1.30) is HTTP, while the default for
existing installation (from before version 1.30) is email.  At the
moment, when HTTP is enabled, it is tested first, and if it fails and
/usr/sbin/sendmail exist, an email will be sent instead.

I'm not sure if we want to confuse the users with these lengthy
explanations, but I am equally sure we should make sure the template
text do not include incorrect explanations.
