That would be a drastic change.  The main purpose of debian-user, as I
see it, is to offer help to Debian users who need it.  As such, the
posting etiquette expectations need to be lowered a bit for this list.
Users who need help may have lower technical proficiency than one would
expect on, say, a Debian developers' list.

As long as people are not intentionally being rude about it, I'd give
them the benefit of the doubt.  "Richard", for example, seemed to be
unaware that the HTML parts of his multipart messages were being sent
with the font size set to "small".  Now that he knows about it, he might
be able to get that taken care of.

Lots of other people may be facing similar technological challenges,
and yet they may still be capable of contributing to the discussion.
