This is consistent with what I've observed on lists. > Nonetheless, the PC World article at > http://www.pcworld.com/article/2141120/yahoo-email-antispoofing-policy-breaks-mailing-lists.html > lists Gmail as being one of the cooperating email service providers > honoring Yahoo's DMARC p=reject policy. I've done some testing. If I send a message from my server, but not from a list From: a yahoo.com address to a gmail address, it gets rejected with > 550-5.7.1 Unauthenticated email from yahoo.com is not accepted due to domain's > 550-5.7.1 DMARC policy.

Thus, it appears that gmail does honor DMARC policy in general, but has some kind of mitigation policy to identify (heuristicly? via headers?) mail from a list and quarantine it even if the From: domain's policy is reject. Note it doesn't use the RFC 2369 List- headers because it still recognizes a message without them as from a list. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
