    Avoid the use of "you" in the mail chapter
    
    Rewrite sentences that contain 'you', which should be avoided according
    to the FDP Primer. The resulting sentences are easier to understand and
    often shorter. I did not change programlistings and other output as
    these are from programs, which need to be changed first (out of scope of
    this change).
