Select the message I sent and then hit "Ctrl+U" for displaying full e-
mail headers in Thunderbird ;-)

I mean using as incoming/outgoing server "news.gmane.org:119" but no 
browser needed (although posting via http is also available), you can use 
any news client (i.e., Thunderbird), create a new "News" account and 
configure Gmane as news server (with the above mentioned host name and 
port), choose the group you want to follow and get/post messages as 
usual :-)
