The Gmane gateway has its own independent subscription. You just post
with some valid mail address in From, and reply (by email) to the autoreply the
system sends out, and after that you can post by news.

If you want to obscure your email address, you may do an "X-Archive:
encrypt" header, which creates a Gmane mail alias (which people can
really reply to by mail, if they wish).
