So, is it time for mailing lists to rewrite the From: header?   I've
always preferred ones that supply a Reply-To: back to the list so
people don't accidentally answer off-list anyway, but I know there are
arguments on the other side.

Thanks Joseph,

As a side-note, the code framework I posted a week or so ago for Yahoo! 
has been working very well for our mailing lists.  I'm going to work on 
generalizing my code and doing a DMARC check prior to posting for any 
domains.  Some people might want to consider things like the new DMARC 
code in the latest mailman release candidate but I like fixing this with 
things like MD where it's more generic and customizable at the same 
time.  Will share code when I'm done.


Regards,
KAM

That seems to be the consensus on the Listserv(TM) mailing lists.  They 
are doing it selectively after doing a DNS Query and detecting the broken 
setting.  See

That's ummm, interesting, that you can't see their example format
without a login.   But it looks like they want to rewrite the
Reply-To: as the original sender which seems very wrong, at least for
technical lists where most posters would never want to request a
private reply.And doing anything 'selectively' also seems wrong if
you ever expect users to catch on to how a system works.

Sorry about that login to unmask issue...  Here is the full text of that 
post on the LISTSERV List Owner's Forum:

**
This is posted from my yahoo.com account to illustrate L-Soft's solution 
to the From: address re-write issue.  We think it is superior because it 
works as follows:

-LISTSERV does a DNS lookup on the From: address to see if a re-write for 
DMARC Reject reasons is needed.  We are already handling *@aol.com 
addresses automatically and immediately.

-If From: address re-write is necessary, you can see the format: 
[token]-dmarc-requ...@listserv.xyz.com.  The numerical [token] is unique 
to each LISTSERV instance.


-Reply-To: field is populated with non-rewritten address so private 
reply-to-sender will actually go to sender as expected and not be 
accidentally posted to the list.

-Return-Path: field is also populated with PROBE format non-rewritten 
address so that true bad-addresses bounces can be handled correctly.

 
-List mail should still filter into the correct mail folder so users will 
not complain about 'lost' mail.

This is a fix server admins can install and forget, and everything just 
works like before. No need for everyone to change their habits and their 
folder rules for incoming mail. No need for special configuration 
settings.  No need to monitor the trade press for daily updates.
**

The sender's Yahoo address was rewritten to be Ben Parker 
0007fbf933af-dmarc-requ...@peach.ease.lsoft.com where 
peach.ease.lsoft.com is the list host.

The reply-to field is only set on lists configured to reply to sender.  It 
is not set on lists configured to reply to the list.  I am on several 
technical lists (bind-users and dns-operations ) that reply by default to 
the sender.

Yeah, the whole thing sucks.  But unless we come up with a 1,000lb gorilla 
to take on the 800lb gorillas, we'll have to resort to this sort of 
guerrilla warfare.

[Mimedefang] ADMINISTRIVIA: Yahoo users may not post to this mailing list

2014-04-15 Thread David F. Skoll
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello,

I regret to inform Yahoo users that they may no longer post to any mailing
list hosted on lists.roaringpenguin.com.

The reason is a recent policy change by Yahoo to their DMARC policy that
makes third-party servers reject mailing list traffic as forged.
See 
http://emailskinny.com/2014/04/07/yahoo-mail-brings-the-pain-with-dmarc-policy-change/
for a discussion.

Yahoo users may continue to subscribe to our lists, but if they wish to
post to this list, they should obtain a non-Yahoo email address to do
so.

Regards,

David.
