If you can, it's probably better to just ban the Yahoo users from posting (or put them all on moderation). That will avoid any bounces caused by the new Yahoo DMARC reject policy, but still allow Yahoo users to lurk (receiving messages from the list). If any other domains set their DMARC policy to reject, they'll have to be moderated as well, but the receiving domains that are bouncing messages (and there's quite a list) are simply obeying the policy published by Yahoo that says to reject any mail with a yahoo.com domain that didn't directly originate from Yahoo's defined server IPs, so if you prevent yahoo.com emails from posting to the list, the bounces will go away. I've been through this with a mailing list I run for my neighborhood, and there's basically no good solution. I can't ban or moderate folks with Yahoo accounts (it's about 20% of the users), so I have to break RFCs and mangle the From: header. I really wish the DMARC folks would actually _try_ to work with the IETF to find a sensible solution rather than just unilaterally nuke every mailing list in existence and make you pick which standards you want to break. <groan> -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net
