   No, it has to be a good email address. One that works.   
      
   It is a subscription, the moderator has to be able to contact you on email.   
      
      
   The rules will probably depend on each moderated group. I suppose they   
   post them somewhere.

   I can not answer those questions. I had no idea that sending to an   
   Usenet moderated group involved sending emails.   
      
   I would suggest google for documentation.
