    As listmaster i can confirm that it is a big problem to deliver Mails to gmail/outlook/yahoo. Yahoo Subscribers are mostly gone by now because
    they bounced a lot, for gmail it is so much that we just ignore bounces because of those rules.

    Yes, I gave up for the mailing lists I run and just rewrite the From
    address to be the address of the list and move the actual sender to
    Reply-To, and I see other technical mailing lists like the glibc lists
    have started doing this as well (using the built-in Mailman feature, which
    can optionally do this only if the sender domain has SPF/DMARC records).

    The answer that we (PostgreSQL folks, at least) went with was to stop
    breaking DKIM because that's just a bad approach to take these days with mailing lists. If you're curious about what PostgreSQL and now SPI are
    using for our lists, it's called pgLister and is here:

    https://gitlab.com/pglister/pglister

    Others have hacked up mailman to make it stop breaking DKIM too (though
    it's pretty grotty how they did it, I'll admit).

    Yes, yes, I know that means a bunch of mailman features aren't
    available. We've managed to survive even without them.

    Thanks,

    Stephen
