The difference between
How do you DO? and
How do YOU do? is
when "Do" is emphasized, it is the standard greeting that's not really asking how you are doing and where the proper response is, "How do you DO?"
when "YOU" is emphasized, it is a polite slightly more personal greeting where the response is usually, "Fine. And you?"
