I've written this:

https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/guide-to-interacting-with-this-site-by-email/25960

and I'd love feedback on it.

Keep in mind:

* It never will be the same as mailman. There are different constraints.

* Discourse developers and designers see the web interaction as primary, and
  that isn't going to change.

* Dealing with email has a lot of corner cases, so there will be rough
  edges.
