From the article Howie pointed to:
"
While this is a good thing from an anti-spoofing perspective, it raises
problems for legitimate mailing lists, according to the email expert.
“Lists invariably use their own bounce address in their own domain, so
the SPF doesn’t match,” Levine said. “Lists generally modify messages
via subject tags, body footers, attachment stripping, and other useful
features that break the DKIM signature. So on even the most legitimate
list mail like, say, the IETF’s, most of the mail fails the DMARC
assertions, not due to the lists doing anything ‘wrong’.”
"
This article also mentions list subscribers getting inadvertently
black-listed by non-yahoo lists.I jumped to the conclusion this issue is
relevant to folks posting to (among others) the PVRC email list and
that's why Howie was flagging it.
I'll resume using the email on my KA9FOX personal domain server (coming
up on 14 years of wonderful reliability) and continue with my oblivious
condition.
