Much better things to do with my time and energies...

Uh, if it ever gets to her... I imagine mystery suitor is banking on attracting the publicity necessary to speed his message along.

There's no telling when - or even if - it will get to her. Or she may already have been tipped off to the whole thing, so sending it along could be a moot point. It could wind up like the chain email asking for postcards for the kid with cancer...who is now a healthy adult who doesn't want postcards anymore. Me? I'd rather the guy just up and asked me to my face. What's not romantic enough about that? Call me grumpy, but if Mr. Twistie had tried this method on me, he might still be single. (scratches head)
