Lazy git that I am I only quite recently configured DMARC for
bsdly.net, and it actually had at least some of the desired effect:
that domain's mail traffic started coming through to Google-hosted
domains, and whenever somebody makes a new contribution to the
spamtraps collection[1], I get reports from DMARC-reporting domains as
well as the usual traces in the greylist.

The only downside is, the traditional forwarding that mailing lists do
*also* triggers the DMARC dark magic, and there is a significant risk
that messages sent with senders in DMARC domains via the mailing list
to recipients with a somewhat DMARC-aware setup will be discarded.

However, the solution or workaround is to set up the mailing list for
the DMARC magic to do some benign rewriting of headers - the message
at [2] describes how the FreeBSD list admins solved the problem for
their lists.

If the OpenBSD list admins are reading this: would it be possible to
make a similar change in the OpenBSD mailing list configuration?

All the best,
Peter
