There's a difference between evangelizing a setup to someone for selfish reasons (to bring more users hoping developers follow, to make it easier to troubleshoot), and for reasons the other person just doesn't know or grasp yet (using POP instead of IMAP is causing your phone and pc to be out of sync)

Just to add, I don't mind someone evangelizing their setup, since they may have solved a problem that I didn't know there was a solution for.

Anything that reduces the "don't know what I don't know" bucket is a good thing.
