 No and yes (mostly).  But the gateway is used to be one-way, where what you

Let's see. I'm posting this to the newsgroup, and I am subscribed
to linux-gate at lists.bofh.it .

 It isn't.

Posted via gmane.linux.debian.user. If you got this via the mailing
list, that should answer your question.

Well my experience is that my repeated posts to the NG fell on deaf
ears, but when I sent the very same message to the email address, I got
answers to my question.  I thought I read somewhere that it was one-way,
but I can't seem to find anything on it right now.

I remember a similar discussion from about half a year ago (or maybe 
more). Some people thought the gateway was one-way, others insisted it 
works both ways.


My posts to the newsgroup never appeared on the mailing list, so I stood 
firmly in the camp of the non-believers. Now maybe it's possible that 
the gateway works both ways but that there's something else wrong, such 
as incorrectly configure news servers at ISP's.


Whatever the case, newsgroup to ML doesn't work for many people. I 
started using gmane, which works both ways without problems, and I never 
looked back.

Well, that seems to answer that... the gateway is bi-directional. :)
