And then there is the (nowadays perceived) problem that reportbug needs a working MTA setup or at least outgoing traffic on port 25/587. Both ports are blocked on almost all my machines, so I still have not much bothered with reportbug. (I'd use it for when a maintainer tells me to use it as it will collect some information automatically, but thats it.)
For at least a couple of years, reportbug has been able to send mail via the user's ISP's smtp server, just like he sends "regular" email.
I'd bet that, given the correct ~/.reportbugrc options, you can also use smtp.google.com.
