Looking at their download page: http://gmane.org/dist.php they mention using INN, Usenet server software. So they're gatewaying email lists into Newsgroups. And not using IMAP software at all. This is what I did, although they're obviously a lot more sophisticated. > Perhaps, I was not clear -- I already use Cyrus as an IMAP server > for both private mailboxes and the shared ones with mailing-list > archives.

Several email clients -- eg alpine, sylpheed, claws-mail, etc -- appear to have the functionality to use an NNTP server that's separate from an IMAP server.
