I run a _mail_ gateway, not a news gateway.  So, no, posting via nntp 
isn't going to work.  As to why I require registration, it's spam 
prevention.  I'm not willing to open up posts to non-registered users as 
it's a very strong line of defense.  I'm also not eager to trust gmane as 
an open relay point.
