So the answer is kinda. Whereas back on DENX we never "munged" emails
this is also why we likely often had big piles of unsubscribed due to
bounces (which was due to rejection from being incorrectly set as spam)
on the big providers. So now mailman is configured to munge the headers
*only* from senders which have a enforcing DMARC policy set, which
xs4all.nl has. And because we're on shared resources our lists not
following the DMARC rules would mess up all of the other lists.
