Would forwarding his message to community@debian.org and asking for a
one month suspension violate the mailing list rules?

I think no, but that might be wishful thinking..

I am not spamming this list I am trying to determine if my email setup 
is working.

We have no desire to be subject to your testing. Test somewhere
appropriate, not on a widespread mailing list.

Perhaps you should use debian-lists-test,
<https://lists.debian.org/debian-lists-test/>.

The complete list of Debian mailing lists is available at
<https://lists.debian.org/completeindex.html>.

I think there should be added something in the rules stating that you 
can't use this mailing list for testing your email client, it's pretty 
annoying. But, that isn't up to me.

It is the very first rule:

“Non-constructive or off-topic messages, along with other abuses, are
not welcome.”

And for people who pretend they did notice, it also the seventh rule:

“Do not send "test" messages to determine whether your mail client is
working.”

At this point, people should ignore that person. I could suggest sending
them answers that seem legit but will cause them to break their
computer, but that would not be nice to people stumbling upon the
archives (but probably no worse than the average Ubuntu webforum).

Yeah, it is the Code of Conduct, sorry, didn't realize that. Could there 
be some SpamAssassin config that we could send to the list-masters, that 
would catch theese kinds of messages?

Not without catching some legitimate questions and answers too. “Test”
is a very common word when diagnosing problems.

The best way to deal with that is to ignore the rare honest mistakes and
ban deliberate repeat offenders.

Should someone report the mail to the mailmasters as stated in here: 
https://www.debian.org/MailingLists/index.en.html

Or is it too small of an issue to even report?

**THANK YOU**

(I know, I'm breaking my promise of bowing out of this thread,
but this is just the kind of constructive behaviour I know and
love in this mailing list)

Cheers

Folks: the OP might be a bit of a challenge to some of us (I
don't think they are bad intentioned; that's irrelevant here).

But all of you jumping at the occasion of such a thread and
amplificating things don't make things better, that's for
sure. Not to talk about those clamouring for some punishment
(are we in the Middle ages or what?).

You have already observed that the OP wants to have
their last word. Let 'em (sometimes) have it and let this
useless thread *die* already.

Sometimes it's just better to shut up. Even if one thinks to be
100% right [1].

Thanks (and I'll bow out of this one :-)

Cheers
