Hello,

there has been no feedback regarding this change, so the setting was done some 
minutes ago.

In case of unforeseen issues, just follow up on the sr-users lists for further 
discussions.

Thanks,

Henning

Subject: Change in mailing list configuration related to DMARC spam filtering

Hello,

due to some changes from certain cloud infrastructure provider related to spam 
filtering with DMARC, we need to change the list manager "mailman" 
configuration for the following lists:


  *   sr-users
  *   sr-user-es
  *   sr-dev
  *   business
  *   sr-docs
  *   kamailio-announce
  *   the administrative mailing list

The change will impact the "From" that is displayed in your email program. 
Without that change large e-mail providers (Gmail, Microsoft O365) will reject 
messages from a sender with certain strict DMARC policy. This is already 
affecting several people on the lists (for example with GitHub notice mails), 
but over time the problem will certainly increase.

Regarding the technical change:

We will munge the From: header so it doesn't contain the domain that triggers 
the DMARC rejection.  Essentially, the Mailman list takes ownership of the 
message and injects its own address into the From: header.  This can affect 
reply-to-sender, although we add the original From: address in the Reply-To: 
header (or sometimes the Cc: header) to reduce the impact of this. We plan to 
do this for all emails unconditionally, regardless of their sender DMARC 
policy, to have an identical behaviour for all users. Please refer to this [1] 
page for more details. For a general description of DMARC refer to this page 
[2].

This change should have not a big impact for you, but some users might need to 
adapt some mail filters. Therefore, we would like to gather feedback on that 
change from you. We expect that the most visible change is that It will be not 
possible anymore to just reply by e-mail to mails from GitHub and have them 
"automatically" added to the discussed issue. This feature was so far used 
rarely and only from a few people.

We plan to implement this change by the end of this week, when its done it will 
be also shortly announced.

Best regards,

Henning Westerholt
