For some reason mailman failed to "munge from" for senders with dmarc policy ;(

It's now configured to always munge to avoid this again.
I'd say, let Mailman throw all people off the list that have enabled DMARC
checking without using exceptions for the lists they are on. It's a known
fact that DMARC does not cope well with mailing lists. Blindly enabling
DMARC checks without thinking about the consequences for themselves should
not be the problem of other well behaving participants.
The problem is that it would drop all gmail users for a start, which there are plenty of. Also judging from the amount of bounces ww got it seemed like half the subscribers would drop out.
Most people use OpenDMARC and there are patches to mark certain hosts as
mailing lists senders, so it is possible.
Wonder how many would do this though?
And everyone using p=reject should think about it as well - as I said,
DMARC does not play well with mailing lists, so setting p=reject on a
domain used to participate on mailing lists is not wise, to say the least.
You should not follow Yahoo and AOL - you know, why they did it, don't you?
Unfortunately this is usually required by many common providers such as microsoft and google, otherwise they refuse your mail.
And Aki, please go back to "munge only if needed" - munging all messages
leads to a really bad "user experience".
It does not seem to work correctly. I'll review the settings when we manage to upgrade to mailman3
Thanks.
Hope you understand .
