List messages have traditionally kept the sender's email address, so that you can see who sent the message and reply directly to them if you want. > But if I have got this right, you're saying that messages 'from the > list' aren't necessarily marked as being from the list, so Yahoo > bounces them - is that correct? Well, they are marked clearly as being from a list, but Yahoo's DMARC policy prevents anyone sending emails "on behalf of", which is effectively what a list is. The only exception is when the original message is not altered, but it has to be to add subject prefix, footer etc. > Are all list EMail redirected as if from the subscriber - as if so, I > think I'm still lost as to how ANY mails then get through from the > list to me - surely all mails from the list would fail the DMARC test? Yahoo and AOL are about the only major email providers that use DMARC. It was quite controversial when they turned it on, especially with no notice.
