The "Mailing Lists" page: http://www.php.net/mailing-lists.php should make it clear that the newsgroups are just an interface to the mailing lists, and that in order to be able to post messages via the new.php.net newsserver, you must do so using an "approved" email address, or else use an email address where you can receive a confirmation email. Either that, or suggest that for their first 'posting', people send an email to the list in question(rather than 'posting' via the newsserver), and that after that, they can 'post' via the newsserver, but they must make sure to use the email address that was approved as a result of their first email 'posting'.
