[ANN] Further mailman updates

Hey all,

As some people have noticed, with the move to lists.u-boot-project.org
(and OSU OSL hosting), there's been some behavior changes for how people
who use an email provider with a DMARC policy set to reject (for when
certain actions happen). This in turn lead to some rewrites, and then
things like patchwork (now updated I think) or lore (is append-only) not
seeing posts as expected (but seeing them as the email policy wanted
them to be seen). The good news here is that we can get the lists
changed to the same behavior we used to have (which also means that
gmail might see us as spam more often, but... who knows). For the two
low traffic list (board-maintainers, custodians) this change has been
done now. For the main list itself, this should happen sometime Monday
morning pacific, and monitored for problems.

A few updates. First, this has gone live now for the main mailing list
now. Second, after a report from E Shattow we found two other
configuration problems with the overall email policies, and they've now
also been resolved.
