Which is easier, fiddling around with your setup so you can post

your setup, you have to drop out to another editor and press F9 for it

works straight off, no setup necessary.
I'm still going to advise people to stop using buggy rubbish.
My opinion is that the Python list should dump the Usenet tie-in and
just go straight e-mail. Python is the only list I'm on that has a
usenet gateway.
I used to love usenet back in the day, but in the present internet
climate makes it unworkable, though I concede that e-mail is reaching
the end of its usefulness as well.
I wouldn't oppose a dual e-mail list and web-based forum system,
provided the forum system supported threaded conversations in a clean
and useful way (maybe like google wave used to).

Here! Here! Well said and amen. My thoughts exactly.
Funny, I thought the sentiment of many here was, "let's just keep this
as a newsgroup, why do we need the mailing list also?" but I'll admit to
being confused about what people have been proposing for alternate
topologies.
