When you deliver a message, if you want to undo that particular change to make it easier to reply to list messages, that's not a bad idea, and it's something I've been doing for years on my mail system.

Yup, it's a curious protocol. The forwarder munges From: and the receiver restores it, after DMARC evaluation. (Maybe someone should specify what header field to use, Original-From:, X-Original-From:, Author:,...)

But it's not related to DKIM2*.

Let us not forget that one of the goals of DKIM2 is to make this kind of munging unnecessary.


I also thought this was the desired solution to the mailing list problem. In fact, since a DKIM2 verifier can verify the original signature of the author's domain, it can issue a dmarc=pass in the face of admissible transformations.

However, how does a list know which subscribers have a DKIM2 verifier? We should still stick to the curious, though improved, protocol above.
