The domain publishes DMARC p=none. Thus, no ISP should treat a message
From: some...@btopenworld.com any differently than the same message
From: some...@elsewhere.com.

I see this exact rejection reliably from AOL. When an AOL user posts to
a list, the list post sent back to that user is rejected in this way,
even though AOL accepts the same post for delivery to other AOL users.

I have experimented with this using my own AOL address to send and
reflecting various versions of the message back. I munged a lot of
headers including I think Message-Id:, and I always got rejected. I gave
up trying to figure out what AOL is looking at, but this reject occurs
to list posts from aol.com, even though the From: is munged to the list
address.

In any case, that's not the reject reason uses for a reject due to DMARC
policy.
