I bet I play more efficiently catching med ticks on my casters than 90% or more of the twinks with huge mana pools ever see, giving me a much large actual used mana pool, as far as pve/leveling goes.
As far as efficient melee... if you say so... but standing and fighting you aren't regenning mana and without rings and twink gear, you aren't taking those hits and mitigating damage well so relying solely on proc and tap (til you oom inevitably) to regen mana is tough for a non twink, without a good weapon...
but if you've got a Rod of Annihilation, by all means, melee your way to 40+ for all I care lol

You don't need the mana regen and you don't need a rod of annihilation. The procs keep you healed and do damage the ds does damage. You really can't get any more efficient than that. I always ran out of mobs before I ran out of mana. Thats how I soloed Main room in unrest until I got my lvl 20 charm. This was as an iksar though if you are a softskin you probably would not do as well. With the iskar ac bonus and the self and cleric ac buff that necros get you mitigate pretty well at that lvl. Post 24 you're better off playing a traditional caster but until then Necros are just superior melee/tanks than they are casters.
