Hi Matthias,

in most cases, the DKIM signature is applied by the mailserver, so mutt
is not involved. The relationship between DKIM signatures and mailing
lists is specified in RFC 6377[1], and it has always been rocky.

That said, I was not aware that a signature could forbid an email being
resent through a mailing list, but this is what the rejection message
says.
