This would be very helpful. At a minimum it would allow at least me to post to the group via the forum.

The way I would have this particular forum setup would be to first deny posting permission to all board members and then give permission only to those members who are already members of the email group I am mirroring. However, I would only do this if the messages look like they are coming from the sender and not from me. For this type of scenario I wouldn't care if my group members posted to the group using my email address as long as the individual posts showed up with their name in the From field.
