Keep in mind that the silly Exim DKIM signature has NOTHING WHATSOEVER
to do with the Gmail rejections.  Those are solely a problem of
mailop's mail not meeting Google's public requirements, and it's a
problem that only the people who run mailop and its DNS can fix.

In any event, a list could remove old DKIM signatures if they don't
validate any more.  That wouldn't be very hard, the list does what it
does to the message, then reruns the DKIM checks and throws away the
DKIM headers that fail.  But I would be surprised if that made any
difference to where the mail ended up.
