Googlemail has been doing DMARC for a long time. It sees all messages that
fail DMARC as spam, you just need to set up filters that state that the
messages aren't spam ... can't you do the same for yahoomail?

as it happens, DMARC is only checked for the sites, of the original
senders, that have TXT/SPF records in DNS, so a large amount of the mailing
list stuff gets through happily.

Of course you could just convince the owner of the DNS records to have a
"~all" at the end of their SPF/TXT record which means that it allows other
sites to send email, just don't consider them trusted.

one domain that I used to be in charge of (guess who has blackberry users
:( ):

nslookup -type=TXT salltd.co.uk 208.67.222.222
Server:        208.67.222.222
Address:    208.67.222.222#53

Non-authoritative answer:
salltd.co.uk    text = "v=spf1 ip4:80.176.180.40/29 ip4:83.105.6.168/29 ip4:
81.142.120.16/29 include:srs.bis.eu.blackberry.com ~all"
