Some people claimed that list rejections are not a problem, since large mail systems all have whitelists of mailing list servers. Unfortunately, we now know that is not true. My lists come from a dedicated IP that has been sending nothing but squeaky clean list mail for many years. (It's listmail.iecc.com, 64.57.183.54 and 2001:470:1f07:1126:0:62:6c61:7374, and I'm getting both v4 and v6 bounces.) This is the same host that sends list mail from CAUCE and a bunch of other innocuous well behaved lists. If it's not whitelisted, nothing is whitelisted.
All church list mail has DKIM signatures from the list domain, unitarian.ithaca.ny, and the list software, lists.iecc.com. The lists add subject tags and message footers, which of course break the signatures, and that's not going to change, because it's useful. The SPF is reasonable for the list's bounce addresses.
I will, of course, be urgently telling all of my Yahoo subscribers that they need to switch to a different mail provider ASAP, but this is a dismaying self-inflicted wound.
