Comment:

 Flipping this to critical as people have been complaining to me about it
 from gdal-dev and libtiff.

 As I mentioned to in email which is not on this ticket.  Mailman provides
 these possible fixes

 https://wiki.list.org/DEV/DMARC

 So sounds like we need to munge the FROM (I guess somehow leaving out the
 identity of the person who posted the message) so that their domain
 doesn't report back with "OSGEO can't send mail on behalf"


 {{{
 > >>> ARC-Authentication-Results: i=1; mx.google.com;
 > >>>        dkim=neutral (body hash did not verify) header.i=@mapbox.com
 > >>> header.s=google header.b=UDqlMKw4;

 > >>>        dmarc=fail (p=REJECT sp=REJECT dis=QUARANTINE)
 > >>> header.from=mapbox.com ...
 }}}

 As far as I can tell, the issue arises if a domain we are sending on
 behalf for has dmarc check turned on.  It may also depend on the receiving
 end to verify the dmarc check, not sure all providers do or not.  It's a
 non-issue if dmarc check required is not enabled on the "on behalf of"
 domain.
