Is there an update on this? Aside from the operational importance of 
having the IETF mailing lists working well for all users, knowledge of 
how well the latest mailman fixes work will be very helpful for this 
community to have.

... and FWIW, I enabled a "report only" DMARC record for my personal 
domains, including the one for the addresses that I regularly use to 
post to mailing lists. I have seen a lot of reports coming back, not 
just from the big players, but also from a lot of others. So this issue 
is only growing in importance.
