The ezmlm info mail I requested contained no info on this.)The lists currently don't require you to be subscribed to be able to send mail, so you can use your gmane approach without needing to subscribe to send.
I hadn't realized that (or had forgotten it). Thanks.
BTW, the current setup is why there is so much spam going through the lists, but ezmlm and dotsrc.org doesn't give us enough flexibility to make other choices worth it, at least last time I checked. One of these days when I have a bit more time I'll most likely
be switching to a new server and running Mailman, which does let us allow you to be subscribed but not receive mail, and then we can restrict posting to subscribed members only.
When you have more time? Well, ok, I won't hold my breath.
