Comment:

 (We are reviving this again, as a part of the new GetTor code ilv is
 working on and that has been deployed.)

 We have been discussing an updated version of the GetTor message body to
 make it more concise by removing redundant and complicated information. A
 sample template follows; discussions are welcome and encouraged.

 Initial email:

 {{{
 Hi! This is the GetTor robot. I am here to help you download the latest
 Tor
 Browser Bundle.

 Please reply to this message with one of the options below:

     windows
     linux
     osx
     mirrors

 I will then send you the download instructions.

 If you are unsure, just send a blank reply to this message.
 }}}

 Follow-up email:

 {{{

 You requested Tor Browser for $PLATFORM.

 You will need only one of the links below to download the bundle. If a
 link
 does not work for you, try the next one.

 Support

 Still need help? If you have any questions, trouble connecting to Tor
 network,
 or need to talk to a human, please contact our support team at:

     help at rt.torproject.org
 }}}


 The next part is figuring out how to display the links so that users can
 get what they want by reading minimum text. (Right now, GetTor is serving
 Google Drive, Dropbox and GetTor links.)
