Did you restart Mailman after installing the python-dns package?
I think so, but I have no way of checking now.
Yes, I still think that. If you did restart Mailman and the package is available, something should be logged unless the DNS lookup of DMARC policy for the From: domain succeeds and doesn't find a p=reject (or quarantine).
I have attached a patch to Mailman/Utils.py which is a fix for <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1324541> which will log the unavailability of DNS lookup.
We produced equivalent patches concurrently---the one I just posted shows that dns_resolver is not false for me.
