I think the biggest reason is that you need to configure an smtp server,
etc. Typically *Nix machines have a SMTP server always running, but
Windows doesn't.

So I think it is just that if you configured 'mail' to work, then you
don't have to do any configuration for 'bzr-email'.

Robert wrote the code, so you can ask him for more details.

It's actually quite easy to use the builtin smtp tools (bzr-pqm does it
that way). So it would seem reasonable to at least provide support for it.
