The Mutt Users Mailing List FAQ 0.01
Q1: If I want to make sure I get lots of helpful responses to my
questions, even if they aren't really mutt-related, should I write
something like
> Please help me, before i've to use PINE or something like that
at the bottom of my message?
A1: No. Such a response is vaguely rude, even when said half in jest. No
one likes to be threatened, even if they don't take the threat very
seriously. Besides, you're just encouraging a handful of responses like
> So use PINE, you jerk.
which you'll have to filter out while looking for the more helpful
responses that the polite and friendly denizens of mutt-users would
surely have sent you anyway.
