Please do!

The people on this mailing list are polite, knowledgeable, and
helpful, and represent the best aspects of the free open-source
software community. They share their limited time and extensive
expertise out of a willingness to help others and to give something to
the community.

These are people who deserve our respect and appreciation, and, at a
bare minimum, common courtesy and politeness.
