The list/news gateway should probably block messages with priorities like bulk, junk, and vacation (to avoid mailing list spam and away from office messages).

Someone who knows, please enlighten me.
It's not the newsgroup that gets subscribed to the newsletters (wouldn't
it be real stupid if you could subscribe a newsgroup to a newsletter?),
but the mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is a normal
e-mail address.
