OK, makes sense :)

I really did want to change all my 700+ lists, so I wrote the configuration
directive to a file, then applied it to all lists:

echo "dmarc_moderation_action = 1" > dmarc1.cfg
for i in $(bin/list_lists -b); do
   echo $i;
   bin/config_list -i dmarc1.cfg "$i";
done

Hope this can help someone else :)
