This means that any policy on the message origination comes from looking solely at the taugh.com domain. We'll pretend it has a DMARC policy. Herein lies the Yahoo/DMARC issue, because unless your policy essentially stipulates that the IETF is allowed to spoof you, we're stuck. <disclaimer> speaking only as an end-user here </disclaimer> Then perhaps this is what needs to change. John R Levine did not send you a message. He sent a message to the list. It is the list software that sent you a message. So perhaps the From field should have been “From: IETF Mailing list on behalf of John R Levine <ietf@ietf.org>”. The Reply-To could be set to either John’s real address or the mailing list address, depending on what we think users mean when they click “Reply” - reply to John or reply to the list. Yoav
