You set the list attribute gateway_to_mail to Yes, and mailman's 
gate_news cron which runs every 5 minutes by default polls the newsgroup 
for new posts.

I'm not sure what you're asking, but there are no user level controls on 
either direction in Mailman. If you gate mail to news, all list posts, 
regardless of poster, go to the newsgroup, and in the other direction, 
all newsgroup posts go to the list.
