Hi Matias,

You are right, senders that want to implement DMARC need to align "d=" and the 
envelope sender domain with the From: header domain. This will be a challenge 
for ESPs as the From: header domain is often the domain of their customer.

The best approach is to get your customers to setup a subdomain which you can 
use as envelope sender domain and DKIM signing identity. This will allow you to 
do the bounce processing and the signing on their behalf. You can find more 
suggestions related to DKIM for ESPs in:
http://dkimcore.org/deployment/esp.html

PowerMTA will normally only sign with a domain that matches the From: header 
domain, or a parent domain thereof. This will result in an aligned signature as 
long as you have a matching "domain-key" configured. If you use "dkim-identity" 
or "dkim-identity-fallback" your DKIM signature will probably be not aligned.
