When you use the anonymous posting form, your question goes into a queue that is only read by the admins. Your posting is not linked to your username in any way once it goes up on the site, though the admins may know who posted the question. It is posted through an Anonymous user account. There is currently no mechanism for following up anonymously though the admins will post an email to an anonymous thread, as will many other MeFi users. Sometimes people set up disposable email accounts so they can be contacted about an anonymous posting.
