The following is from http://gmane.org/post-details.php . Note "the MAIL
FROM envelope has to be [email protected]. It is currently the address
that Gmane is subscribed to".

I still don't get it - if I now whitelist *[email protected] for sending, this would open the door to anyone who forges the MAIL FROM to spam these lists. Are there any more detailed instructions, like filtering for incoming MX servers, signatures and the like, to ensure the message really comes from GMANE?

I only know what I have read from gmane's web site. I would think instructions on how gmane would deliver posts to the list would have been given at the time it was set up.

I have never seen any spam to a list I follow through Gmane that was injected 
by Gmane.
