The only thing changing is what happens if someone posts /directly/ to
the mailing list (not through gmane, etc).
And the change is: Instead of passing the message through, with the risk
that the poster will never see the responses), we are instead rejecting
the post with a short explanation of how to either sign-up to the list,
or use a mirror, etc, to interact with the list/newsgroup/mirror/whatever.
