If you post to usenet then I think it should stay for google completeness in threads. But for me the bottom line is that both mentally and physically usenet and mail are two different entities and while I like the common features Gnus provides I still want that difference to be apparent to me. There are a few rough edges in Gnus where "sending" and "posting" are used. They mean different things and I like that they do.
