Well reading it front to back is optional. ;)
But using it as a reference for specific options, is good practice! ;)

FMail handles filenames in any case, so I don't worry about it.

I like to have some output in my debug log of what the decompressor is doing...

Not for me. Lha is still used in AmigaNet as the default. And I use rar to 
compress for my point system because it's better at compressing (specially 
multiple files). And I sometimes don't get the mail for my point for weeks...

Same here...
