Again, I disagree strongly.  There have been times where I DO NOT
have EMAIL access, but I do have Usenet/NNTP (I can post articles) 
access.  So?  What do I do?  I post either without an email address
(few newsreaders will allow this due to it violating the RFC) or I
post with an invalid email address just to get it posted.
(I usually use something obvious like: I.dont@have.email.rightnow
