Thanks Marc, 
We don't use personalized messages but the DMARC mitigation could be an issue. 
Thanks for the info!

Regards, 

Christina

You can use that field for anything you want. The biggest potential downside I 
see is when DMARC mitigation is applied to a message. If the original post is

From: John Doe <[email protected]>

the DMARC mitigated message will be

From: John Doe via list <[email protected]>

However, if the original is

From: [email protected]

without a display name, the DMARC mitigated message will be

From: xxx via list <[email protected]>

where xxx is the contents of that field. A similar situation occurs when a list 
is fully personalized so each post is addressed To: the recipient. In that case 
the post sent to [email protected] will be addressed

To: xxx <[email protected]>

where xxx is again the contents of that field.
