This is a draft for review. It is not an approved essay and not advice for a specific case.
Storage
If the operation succeeds you see a reference. That means the text was written into this running database. It does not mean an email left, and it does not mean a message was posted on another platform.
The reference
Keep it. The follow-up page shows status and the storage label only. It does not show your text or your contact to someone who has the reference.
The current label
Storage is marked as the record for this running site, not as production delivery. External sending is not built. On a later host the record can sit on the server disk, and sending stays off until it is added on purpose.
Status words
- Stored: it reached the record
- In review: the operator is looking at it
- Waiting on you: a later contact is needed, and the site itself does not send an automatic message about that
- Closed: work on the record has ended
