You posted via plane.gmane.org, using Claws Mail news reader, yet I see your personal mail address. And that is the point.
I don't understand how it is connected with your statement:
"Because then all posts from gmane users would appear to the rest of us with the same "from" email, so that we would think they all come from the same user."
when you are able to see that my 'from' is not "all come from the same user" ?
Exactly. If the list requires subscription, then gmane in turn requires you subscribe with nomail. Either you do it, or they do it in your stead. If the list does not require subscription, then gmane doesn't require you, either, to subscribe. In both cases, gmane sends mails to the list with your own mail address, not one of them. You post an nntp post to gmane, and they in turn generate a normal email that is sent to the mail list, with your mail address (in your stead). Thus you can receive direct email posts from people here, off-list, copies of the same post that you see on nntp, and of course, spam. Basically the same as in an nntp group that forces you to subscribe with real mail addresses. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
