+In fact the lists *are* moderated for users that post from not-subscribed email
+addresses. However, this moderation should be transparent to the poster, you
+only might notice some additional delay until your message shows up on the
+list, as it has to be handled manually. Note that this is a one-time delay, as
+the address will be added to a white-list, so that further messages from the
+same sending address will get through immediatelly.
+
+So, to initiate a discussion you do not need to subscribe to the mailing list
+in question. And people are very much encouraged to maintain the CC
+recipients, so that you'll also receive replys to your message.
