I don't use posteo, but I think the following snippets should get you
going:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; ~/.gnus
(setq gnus-parameters
      '((".*"
         (posting-style
          (name "gfp")
          (address "gottfried@posteo.de")
          ;; ("X-Message-SMTP-Method" "smtp posteo.de 465")
          ))))

(setq message-send-mail-function 'smtpmail-send-it
      smtpmail-smtp-server "posteo.de"
      smtpmail-smtp-service 465)

;; ~/.authinfo
machine posteo.de port 465 login gottfried@posteo.de password PASSWORD
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Note that I like to use `gnus-parameters' as one-stop shop for setting
all parameters for my groups, incl. the posting style.

Best, Arash
