I took a different approach. I left the bounce detection on but switched all @yahoo.com accounts to digest mode. Since the mail now comes from the list instead of the @yahoo.com sender there are no rejections. Not a perfect solution but it prevents harm to non-@xxxxxxxxx list participants.
Thats a good tip (Digest Mode) to pass on to our list operators. Thanks.
However, what you going to do with when other domains begin to flip on
the strict DMARC policy switch. There will be more domains doing this
now that Yahoo is showing the payoff is high in increasing the
security quality of their domain.
Keep in mind that this is just about dealing with the legacy existing
user accounts. You SHOULD still honor the policy for at least new
subscribers from yahoo.com accounts. You SHOULD also honor the policy
for new submissions. But you believe you MAY ignore it and do some
things to get around the domain's security policy.
The key is how to do all this in an automated protocol fashion, and it
should begin with first honoring and correcting the DMARC draft
specification for 3rd party resigner operations which it lacks.
