In any event, I'm a unclear about the best solution (if there is one).
Mailman 2.1.16 and up already has the ability to either mung the From: header or wrap the original post in an outer message From: the list.
There is a minor bug in that this is also applied to posts to LIST-owner, but that is fixed for 2.1.18.
The major problem is it requires site configuration action to make this option available to list owners.
See the thread starting at https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2014-April/076372.html for lots of info.
See the post at https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2014-April/076388.html for links to the patches.
My inclination is to refuse postings from addresses @yahoo.com, since accepting them will interfere with everyone's use of our list system.
The only issue for me is precisely how to implement it.
Jim P's branch mentioned in his post at https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2014-April/076383.html is a general implementation for posts From: any domain with a reject DMARC policy.
We are talking about this at PyCon now. At sprints starting tomorrow, we will be working on enhancing the current options by merging at least ideas from Jim P's branch, and making the switches available to list owners by default, all with an eye to releasing this in 2.1.18 in weeks.
