Re: [OSM-talk] weird "excessive bounces" warnings from the list
Lots of OSM email list mail ends up in my GMail spam. AFAICS this is because the remailer doesn't deal with DKIM headers properly (it changes the signed content, To: for example, so the signature test fails) and some providers (btmail for example) have DMARC records which force the rejection of such emails by the recipient, and even if they don't the dkim failure can increase the spam score over the threshold. The envelope-from seems to be correct so that it sees osm as the sender (even though that's not what From: says) and so uses OSM's SPF correctly.

As far as GMail is concerned, the sender *is* sending from a server other than their normal mail server. The email has @yahoo.fr yet it arrived from OpenStreetMap servers. In addition the subject and body got modified ([osm-talk] in subject and unsubscription instructions at the end). Your email got marked as "dkim=neutral (body hash did not verify)", but messages from Yahoo are treated more strictly because Yahoo publishes DMARC records requesting recipients to be more strict, which is somewhat incompatible with mailing lists.

Re: [OSM-talk] weird "excessive bounces" warnings from the list
It's not just that, but it's across a large number of gmail (or gsuite) users, also meeting a certain ratio of users who reported what they got as spam.

As far as I know gmail will only ever reject messages that contain what looks to it like executable programs - attached files (*.exe, *.com, *.bat) It also rejects email from a sender whose SPF record tells it to - that is a problem when mail is forwarded by a mailing list because it no longer appears to come from a "valid" address for the sender so services like gmail which believe SPF records with a "hard reject" flag will reject the email, causing us to see a bounce. So the real problem is subscribers to the list using services like yahoo mail which ignore the reality of how email works and think they can specify exactly where yahoo.com email should appear to come form.

Re: [OSM-talk] weird "excessive bounces" warnings from the list
I get them too. I've also remarked that i don't get messages from some specific addresses. By the way, when replying to a message on talk (but not on any other list i'm subscribed to), the email client wants to reply to the e-mail's sender instead of talk@openstreetmap.org. It would be helpful if all OSM mailing lists would behave the same.

Re: [OSM-talk] weird "excessive bounces" warnings from the list
I get it too, it might be rejecting them because the mailing list is sending too many emails to too many gmail addresses(way to combat spam: limit same messages to different recipients) On Mon., Oct. 1, 2018, 2:56 p.m. Richard, wrote: > Hi, > > from time to time I am getting messages like > > < excessive bounces The last bounce received from you was dated > 30-Sep-2018. >> > > Any idea.. what could be the cause?
