check spf helo, spf mfrom, check dkim, check arc in that order, but do 
not reject, current its only meta data collected to dmarc policy with 
can reject if sender wants it rejected, but this should relly not be 
rejected if its arc-signed / arc-sealed, this indicate a maillist where 
reject is not best way to solve spamming

you need more meta data on diffrent maillists if you write this above
