Yes but maybe distilled down to a few simple points - that rfc is a
bit heavy to read. Rather something like:

- please disable html mode in your mail client
- please post inline, inserting your comments after each point in the
original poster's message
- please clip away extraneous / irrelevant content from the thread as
the conversation goes on
- please don't email posters offlist unless specifically invited to do so
- please refrain from using expletives and making inflammatory comments
- if you disagree with someone, please provide a considered and
logical response explaining why a different approach should be taken

etc

Maybe we can add a link at the bottom of each message using mailman
pointing to the page containing similar content to the above list.

Regards

Tim
