And the "If a mailing list would like to provide the best customer experience...MUST rewrite" suggestion seems like a reasonable way out of this "interoperability vs reality" standoff. How about if I soften it up further:
"Any sender (mailing list, forwarder, ESP, or otherwise) which is tasked to send 
unauthenticated email from an address within a p=reject|quarantine domain it MUST refuse 
to send the message or send the message using an RFC5322.from address in a different 
domain."


That kind of customer experience guidance isn't what goes in an IETF protocol 
specification with normative language.  There can, and probably should be, some 
discussion about that in an appendix, but without the MUSTard.

As I recently mentioned in another thread, the From rewriting trick is 
explicitly contrary to MUST NOT language in RFC 5321 on mailing lists.  We 
should quit pretending it's in scope as a component of DMARCbis and move on.


I hope they amend that passage. There are several shortcomings in that section. By the same argument, MLMs shouldn't add List-* header field either.
