Just to be clear, is this an option that individual subscribers of the mailing
list can set?

For me, the current IETF lists work fine. My MTA completely ignores DMARC,
so it would be nice not to be subjected to mangled From headers.

Are you talking about senders or recipients? The reason yahoo stands out is
because yahoo seems to be one of the few providers that rejects or bounces
mail that fails DMARC checks.

Or are you saying that at the moment 40% of the subscribers of IETF lists reject
or otherwise not receive mail from DMARC protected senders?
