Oh, no that's not it.  Someone with access to postgresql.org was running an
Mail-to-NNTP gateway so that the mailing lists could also be viewed through
an NNTP client.  My Usenet connection was directly to news.us.postgresql.org.

But I can understand the cost/benefit may not be there and I use GMane for a 
bunch of other groups so I'm happy with that as a solution.

Thanks to whoever had been doing the gateway thing all these years!
