Nope. The only thing required by gmane.org is a valid email address. No
password, no subscribing first to the list via email etc.

When you first _post_ to a new list, you will be sent a verifying email
from gmane.org to which you must reply, example:

> You have sent a message to be posted on the

Once you've responed & gmane.org has verified that you are replying from
a valid email account, you'll receive a response back, example:

> You are now authorized to post to the
