I have started to read r-help on Gmane using Thunderbird as a reader. Before that I had messages sent to gmail account.

The first post through Gmane needed moderator approval, but then I got a message from

Your friendly autoauthorizer at Gmane.org

saying

You are now authorized to post to the
gmane.comp.lang.r.general newsgroup.

But my messages are still needing moderator approval, which I assumed would no longer be needed given the message from my friendly autoauthorizer

Gmane.org has nothing to do with the R mailing list; they're just a web site that subscribes to mailing lists and makes them available in other formats. So their authorization lets you post on Gmane, but Gmane isn't authorized to post to the mailing list, and your messages would need manual authorization.

I think it would be best to subscribe and email directly to the real mailing list address. That way your message will usually appear quicker, and won't take someone's intervention.

You can set up your subscription to send you nothing, and still read on Gmane, if you prefer that.

Am I missing something here.

Thanks
