Description
> the link to the contact form in the email could be more explicit (see capture). Maybe the text could be the same as the label button (in that case, Contact us).

> Making it label button might continue to be awkward if the label would be your average “Submit” or “Send”. In that regard, I would opt for a generic text such as the current “Submit a form” (or give option to change this text).
> Would something like “We can’t display our contact form in an email format, so please click here to visit our website to view it” be overkill?
> If the link is a short link, eg “Submit a form”, could it be styled as a button?

Research direction
Start by locating the Form Block's fallback text for emails displayed outside a WordPress context. Review the alternatives in the issue, then confirm the chosen wording and whether the link should receive button styling before treating the updated fallback presentation as done.
