Message to gmane newsgroup comes back with Mail Delivery Failed marked as spam

I signed up for the mailing list for MySql++ developers. I noticed that 
this mailing list was mirrored by a Gmane group, 
gmane.comp.db.mysqk.c++. I attempted to send a message to this Gmane 
group and got back the authorization required message. I replied and 
received the "You are now authorized to post to the
gmane.comp.db.mysql.c++ newsgroup" message.

When I try to post to this group I always receive a Mail Delivery failed 
message with:

  plusplus <at> lists.mysql.com
     SMTP error from remote mailer after end of data:
     host lists.mysql.com [213.136.52.31]: 552 spam score exceeded 
threshold (#5.6.1)

My message contains no spam and I reprint it here:

Subject:
Inserting rows with SSQLS and auto-increment columns

Body:
When creating an SSQLS for inserting a row of data, where the first data
element of the SSQLS structure is an auto-increment column, how do I
specify that element's type in the SSQLS structure and to what do I set
that element before calling query.insert for my data ?

IETF tools list issues (was: Errata)

Hi, something with the IETF Tools list doesn't work.

GMaNe used to be subscribed as whatever <at> gmane.org,
and that worked at least until 2008-07-08:
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.ietf.tools/1109/raw>

GMaNe identified this mail injected via GMaNe as spam.
That's kind of odd, if it's really spam, why forward
it to the list ?  The score says:

| X-Spam-Report: 5.5 points;
| * -0.0 SPF_HELO_PASS SPF: HELO matches SPF record
| * -0.0 SPF_PASS SPF: sender matches SPF record
| *  2.5 UNIQUE_WORDS BODY: Message body has many words used only once
| *  0.4 DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE RBL: Envelope sender in abuse.rfc-ignorant.org
| *  1.4 DNS_FROM_RFC_POST RBL: Envelope sender in postmaster.rfc-ignorant.org
| *  1.2 PRIORITY_NO_NAME Message has priority, but no X-Mailer/User-Agent

Unfortunately the IETF is listed as postmaster and
abuse ignorant since 2008-02-22, I didn't know that.

That my UA has no X-Mailer/User-Agent is IMO a bogey:

When posting via GMaNe the UA is a "Newsreader", and
it has a X-Newsreader, as "specified" in the NetNews
RFC (actually as "deprecated", and this RFC is still
waiting for its number, but that's another story. 

I've reported this "spam" as "unspam" while checking
something else:

gmane.network.jabber.google-talk.user full of spam

Hello,

The group gmane.network.jabber.google-talk.user seems to be 95% spam
and many postings there should actually be recognized by SA without
any problems. Is SA somehow deactivated or not working for that
group?

feature idea: allow partial group name in search form

I wanted to search about Firefox in a group (or groups) about Gentoo.
But I don't remember exactly what the group name is called. But for sure
it has "gentoo" in it. So to save time looking up the group's name, and
possibly for allowing to simultaneously search groups with the same word
in the name in different hierarchies, it would be nice to allow to
search just like this:

http://search.gmane.org/?query=firefox&group=gentoo

So you don't have to type "linux.gentoo.*" in there, just the one part
that is relevant.

gmane.comp.finance.ledger.general moved

Good day all.. just cc'ing a change request I made through the web UI. 
The ledger project has re-opened its mail list, the posting address is 
now ledger-cli <at> googlegroups.com . Also we transferred over the gmane 
subscription to the new list but I haven't seen anything appear in the 
newsgroup yet.

Thanks! Best regards,

Allow posting through Gmane

Hi!

Is there a short description what exactly a list administrator (here: 
Mailman) has to do in order to allow posting through Gmane by 
non-subscribed users?

Skinning Gmane's Blog interface

Apologies if I've missed the info somewhere...

Is it possible to link to a Gmane list in the form:
http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.discuss?set_skin=http://www.mydomain.com/style.css

Or is there another way of integrating a Gmane list with a web site's own
stylesheet?
