It's not for user support. debian-test...@lists.debian.org is for
finding problems with the installation and upgrade process and fixing
those problems.[1]

Unless it's directly related to Debian and the support of Debian, it
probably doesn't belong on debian-user@lists.debian.org. See
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/ for more information.

Of course, threads discussing whether a thread is off topic or not are
also not really on topic, so it's best to suggest that people take a
discussion to a more appropriate mailing list by e-mailing them
privately.

Every Debian mailing list has a description of its primary topic on
https://lists.debian.org.

If you want to talk to the listmasters in the future, e-mailing
listmast...@lists.debian.org is the way to do so.
