I and I think most on d-u would have absolutely no problem with mutt
questions, bash questions etc. Even occasional hardware questions.
Asking questions that are specifically _not_ debian (eg ubuntu
questions) is frowned upon. But few of us have time to deal with
subscribing to a mutt list to ask a single mutt question. And mutt is
after all part of the Debian GNU/Linux OS.
