people who have never bothered to learn and understand proper email
etiquette,

Etiquette varies based on the domain (e.g. where you are).  There is
not one single etiquette for the universe.  In Japan, tipping is often
regarded as extremely offensive.  In the US, tipping is often
expected.

This is true, etiquette varies with the domain.  I haven't been on this
email list for long, but I'm astonished that there's serious debate that the established email etiquette for the Mutt mailing list is anything but "72 to 76 characters per line." Even if there's no FAQ
for the mailing list (that I can find).

But, please, if you think there's a need, feel free to start another mailing list for Mutt users that explicitly states a different convention for line length. I'm sure there will be massive uptake.
