 For bridges obtained via email by emailing bridges@ it's not clear
 how/where to request bridges via email.

 E.g the bridges.tpo website simply says to email bridges@ to get bridges

 Emailing that address gives you a number of commands but doesn't specify
 where to send the commands (email subject, body...) I tried both and
 wasn't able to get it to work.

 It also specifies that you can combine commands but it doesn't give any
 examples or indication of how to do so.

 This was raised by a user and I also couldn't figure it out after trying
 for about 5 minutes :/
