If there is a problem, I am not seeing it on gmail. I have checked my spam filters, no mail to any IETF list there. So unless gmail is doing a hard reject on this, I am not seeing issues. Of course the way to make mailing lists work with DMARC would be to look at the headers and treat messages with mailing list headers differently. Perhaps the issue isn't in DMARC but how the information from DMARC is applied. With all email filtering technologies, the results of any authentication or policy check is merely advice, not a requirement. The sender can't impose any requirements on the receiver. Folk who get hot under the collar about mail filtering tech tend to do so because they don't understand that. On Tue, Apr 29, 2014 at 6:14 PM, Andrew G.
