• What happens after I post to a Gmane newsgroup?
The Gmane auto-authorizer sends you an email.

• I didn't get any email.
Then the address you used in your From or Reply-To headers
was invalid. Use a valid email address. And you can't use a
"public.gmane.org" address when posting.

I have my email address that I use for midrange.com locked very
tightly. Can anyone provide the IP address that the gmane.org email
comes from (final hop)?

The following were found in the message headers of both of the /authorization/ messages I received, both the "confirm that you exist" message and the "now authorized" message from the auto-authorizer; perhaps, that identifies the IP address of interest?:
"Received: from plane.gmane.org (plane.gmane.org. [80.91.229.3])"
and in two other headers [Received-SPF: and Authentication-Results:]
"domain of auth@xxxxxxxxx designates 80.91.229.3 as permitted sender"
