Konstantin, thanks for your advice.

Munging the From addresses did not give wonderful results (among other
things it would make searching the archive a more conplex operation).

So, I am going to try "mean and lean" (since I am the owner/moderator
anyway).  Shortly (i.e. in the next hour or so), I will switch the
linuxppc-dev mailing list to use Mlmmj.  Hopefully this will fix all
our problems with DKIM/DMARC and delivery of posts from some domains.

For the subscribers, to see how to manage you subscription, you will be
able to end an email to <linuxppc-dev+help at lists.ozlabs.org> for
instructions.  Hopefully you all won't find it too restrictive.

Please report any problems with the list after the change to me.
