+2. Using Noffle as a Mail-News Gateway
+--------------------------------------
 
 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.
+The local group is created without postings allowed,
+so mails to the maillist must be sent by email.
+This is not a big problem, since most newsreaders allow choosing between
+a reply and a followup.
