+2. Using Noffle as a gateway between a maillist and a local group
+-----------------------------------------------------------------
+
+In combination with procmail, Noffle can be used to gateway all
+mails from a maillist to a local newsgroup.
+This is convenient for filtering out maillists from your personal emails.
+The local group is created with no posting allowed.
+Instead, replies to the list should be sent by email.
+
+2.1 Create a local group
+------------------------
+
+Example:
+
+    noffle --create local.mail-lists.my-maillist-name
+    noffle --modify post local.mail-lists.my-maillist-name n
+
+2.2 Create a mail2news script
+-----------------------------
+
+You need a program that reads an article from stdin and posts it to
+the local group. E.g. the following Python script will post an article
+read from stdin to the newsgroup given as the first argument:
 
+    #!/usr/bin/python
+    # Post article from stdin to noffle in group given as first argument.
+    import StringIO, nntplib, os, sys
+    if len(sys.argv) != 2: raise Exception("Need group as argument")
+    grp = sys.argv[1]
+    buf = StringIO.StringIO()
+    buf.writelines("Newsgroups: " + grp + "\n")
+    buf.write(sys.stdin.read())
+    buf.seek(0)
+    os.system("/usr/local/bin/noffle --modify post " + grp + " y")
+    srv = nntplib.NNTP("localhost")
+    srv.group(grp)
+    srv.post(buf)
+    srv.quit
+    os.system("/usr/local/bin/noffle --modify post " + grp + " n")
+
+2.3 Create an entry in .procmailrc
+----------------------------------
+
+Add a procmail entry for recognizing mails from the maillist and
+posting it using mail2news.
+
+Example of a ~/.procmailrc:
+
+    PATH=/bin:/usr/bin
+    MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
+    LOGFILE=$MAILDIR/procmail.log
+
+    :0
+    * ^To.*my-maillist-name@lists.somewhere.org
+    |/home/user/bin/mail2news local.mail-lists.my-maillist-name
