Well, protocol of solving issues (IMO) is checking help pages, then stack overflow, then asking in IRC and the last case filing a bug in phabricator. And when you've got your answer (for example in IRC), put it in help pages to save others from going through this again in future. Mailing lists are a place to discuss (not to debug) and It's not very search-able either.
About phabricator. Don't worry to be wrong. Worst case scenario, it'll be marked as invalid but better people gets the ping instead of everyone in this mailing list (given that you add proper projects).
