This is the from_is_list setting which controls DMARC mitigations
applied to ALL messages.

You also need to look at Privacy options... -> Sender filters settings
dmarc_moderation_action and dmarc_quarantine_moderation_action which
control the mitigations applied to messages From: domains that publish
DMARC policies of reject and quarantine.

If reply_goes_to_list is Explicit address, mailman will add
reply_to_address to Reply-To: and if that's the list posting address,
it's no different from setting reply_goes_to_list to This list.

If reply_goes_to_list is Poster, Mailman won't add anything to Reply-To:
for this reason, but it will still honor first_strip_reply_to and add
the original From: to Reply-To: if the From: is munged.

You need to do something to mitigate DMARC or all posts to the list
From: domains that publish DMARC p=reject will be bounced by many
recipients ISPs. For advice on what you can do, see
