It should work with default settings.
I can't agree with this.
It took me lots of time to configure mutt to work well for me in the first
time. Just default settings are far _not_ enough, especially for us
non-english-speakers. One common setting is the encoding, of course, lkml
prefers UTF-8, so I must set my mutt with `set send_charset="us-ascii:utf-8"`.
This makes sense, but it's not really a mutt specific issue and
problems because mutt prefers iso-8859-1 over UTF-8 by default are
quite rare.
Manuals of mutt told me to add "subscribe [email protected]" if I
subscribed lkml, but in fact, we'd better _not_ add this, or it will drop
myself from cc list.
Or other things like these.

Whether or not people want to get personal copies of answers to mailing
list posts is a religious issue being second only to the vi<->emacs wars...
But as far as I understand it, this documentation is intended to help
people to get sending patches right (no line wrap etc.), not as a
generic documentation for mail clients.
Definitely.
and to reduce the amount of repetition that we have to do.
I'll add a bit about it not being complete s/w package config info.
