Comcast and several other providers are now following suit with
implementing DMARC signing, so it looks like I'll need to adapt the list
server to deal with this.  There are a couple technical solutions I've
seen that either involved rewriting the headers to bypass the DMARC
signing or entirely encapsulating DMARC signed postings to the list.
I'll try to get a solution in place soon, but it will likely be several
days.  In the meantime, if you post to the list from a mail service
using DMARC signing you are likely to be unsubscribed due to
undeliverable bounces.  I moderated the Yahoo! subscribers to avoid
this, but would rather not play whack-a-mole since I'm now resigned to
solving it technically.

Thanks for your patience.
