Over 4 years old. Current release is 2.1.9. Is there some reason why
you can't upgrade?

How about the choice of mail client reading the resultant post?

First message snipped.

The next 4 headers have been inserted along with blank lines in the
middle of the DomainKey-Signature: header. This is presumably because
something inserted a blank line at this point terminating the headers.

It is difficult to tell from the 'folding' and 'refolding' what the
original acrtually looked like.

The above 5 headers were inserted by Mailman immediately before SMTP
delivery. At this point, The headers above had not yet been munged.
Thus, my best guess is that it is some MTA between Mailman and you
that is corrupting the DomainKey-Signature: header.

Judging from the headers

and the fact that the added Date: and Message-ID: headers are

>Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
>Date: Mon,  8 Jan 2007 23:49:54 +0100 (CET)

(same timestamp and messade-id host name)

I think the Postfix at llla207-a.servidoresdns.net may be responsible
for munging the DomainKey-Signature:, or it may just be the first MTA
that detected it, and llsa730-a01.servidoresdns.net may have done it.
