There is no consensus at all on how mailing lists should deal with
DMARC problems.
Not quite John.
The specific DMARC protocol aside, with any author domain policies in
general, whether it was SSP, ADSP or any DKIM author domain signing
authorization
protocol (DSAP), there was a consensus RFC built document that
provided the basic guideline for mailing list operations in dealing
with restrictive DKIM signing policies. It used ADSP as the "DSAP" of
the day. But replace ADSP with DMARC and the design recommendations apply:
RFC6377 DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) and Mailing Lists
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6377
And overall, the basic guideline was to support the framework, not
ignore it as it never existed and instead pushed for breaking the
security protocol.
As a LIST developer and implementor of the "DSAP" protocol, it was simple:
1) Deny Restrictive Domains from Subscribing
2) Deny Restrictive Domains from List Submission
3) Pottery Principle "You break it, you own it" - Resign mail
That is all at the top level that needed to be done and all the above
really has nothing to do with a mailing list but the mail receiver
verifier and the outbound mail server.
This is about not wanting to do a basic author domain signature
authorization lookup for any kind of mail service.
