OH NO!!!
I have used the GMane SMTP->NNTP service since at least 10 years.
It is my main channel into development communities using mail lists
and is an invaluable resource.

I cannot even begin to understand how I would be able to solve the
programming problems I encounter without this resource available.

Mail lists is no alternative because there is no structure and I would
be flooded with email hiding the normal mail use. NNTP is king in
these regards.
