Reindl, stop this. No need to write stuff about "08/15 brains".

emails are a tool, and a tool that is used a certain way by
people. Insisting that the tool shouldn't be used that way is
pointless. We want to discuss systemd on this mailing list and not
what the truest bestest way to send mails to mailing lists is, it's
irrelevant, we better adjust the mailing list so that it works for
people rather than insist that they are doing it wrong.

Mailing lists have a high threshold of entry anyway, and scare many
people away who aren't that used how the 1990's Internet wanted things
to work. There's really no point in making the level of expertise you
need to participate even higher by requiring them to use a UNIX nerd
quality MUA.

Hence, this is a pointless discussion. What people actually do
matters, and what the book says doesn't.
