The reply you received is somewhat misleading. It seems the issue is DMARC policy rejection. Your provider says the outgoing mail is DKIM signed and passes SPF, and there is no reason to believe that is not the case, so the rejection must be DMARC related. The relevant FAQs are <https://wiki.list.org/x/17891458> and <https://wiki.list.org/DEV/DMARC>. All the mitigations mentioned in the Mailman 2 section of <https://wiki.list.org/DEV/DMARC> should be available. The recommended method is to set Privacy options - Sender filters -> dmarc_moderation_action to Munge From. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
