Yes, because every single one of my post to the mailing list (including
this one) in the last 3 years are actually newsgroup posts to
gmane.comp.java.drools.devel or gmane.comp.java.drools.user.

gmane makes you verify the email from your own email box, so a bit of a

Actually, that's only your first post (per newsgroup). So when I just
start using project A (xstream) and want to post to the mailing list of
A (gmane.comp.java.xstream.user), I only have to verify my first post.
In any case, John Doe doesn't like littering his mailbox by subscribing
to a mailing list, so pointing him to something like gmane or nabble
will stop him from contacting developers directly (and lose the benefit
of the community).
Maybe nabble is better though:
http://old.nabble.com/drools---user-f11823.html
Gonna try posting from there to this list.
With kind regards,
