Thanks for the response. I didn't know I was using a gateway. All I
know is that I signed up to Usenet-News.net to be able to access
newsgroups and I can download these without problem in Icedove. I
signed up via my gmail email service. If I post by sending an email
using the web interface of gmail to debian-user@lists.debian.org
(such as this message I am now writing) it gets into the newsgroup.
If I use the Icedove interface I get this response from a moderation
robot. I have no idea who "http://lists.bofh.it/listinfo/linux-gate";
is and how I get routed through them.
debian-user is a mailing list, not a usenet newsgroup. One sends
messages o the list's email address, and everybody that is subscribed
receives the messages in their email addresses.
To where do you send emails that return?
There are some gateway services that allows reading via nntp (that is,
as if it were a newsgroup). They generally need some special steps for
posting, however. Going to the page
http://lists.bofh.it/listinfo/linux-gate, it states that "After
subscribing to this mailing list you will be able to post articles to
the linux.* hierarchy moderated newsgroups." So it seems if you
subscribe to that list you'll be able to post to debian-user.
Icedove sends messages out via my ISP's SMTP server - maybe it's
they who are routing it through this gateway. I'll try changing the
outgoing server to google's SMTP if I can, before I post this and
see if that works. If it does I'll post again.
I don't think that will help. But posting directly to debian-user, or
subscribing to that list probably will.
