There is no need for mailman/MLM to duplicate the functionality already
provided by other DKIM-signing solutions (like amavisd or opendkim milter),
all that is needed it to configure mailman fanout to be fed back to the
signer.

There is no need for a MLM to remove original signatures (except to save some 
bytes in transmission and storage), even if it knows it will make changes
which will invalidate them. A failed signature is equivalent to no signature.

It is only a problem if your domain claims that mail with no valid
author-domain signature is to be discarded. Such claim can be done
through publishing an ADSP policy record in DNS (RFC 5617).

It is only appropriate to publish a 'discardable' policy for domains
which always send direct mail (never through foreign mailing lists),
such as paypal, ebay, banks, etc.  Domains which have regular users
which post to mailing lists, should not publish a 'discardable' policy.
