[openssl-dev] Mailman version used by OpenSSL is misconfigured and/or broken in relation to DKIM

[Quanah Gibson-Mount]

Yesterday, I was alerted by a member of the list that my emails to 
openssl-dev are ending up in their SPAM folder.  After examining my emails 
as sent out by OpenSSL's mailman, I saw that it is mucking with the 
headers, causing DKIM failures.  This could be because of one of two 
reasons:

a) The version of mailman used by the OpenSSL project (2.1.18) has a known 
bug around DKIM that was fixed in 2.1.19

b) The mailman configuration is incorrect.

I attempted to file an RT to alert the OpenSSL project of this significant 
issue.  Unfortunately, I received the following grossly uneducated 
response.  Can someone who actually understands email, and why it is 
critical that DKIM signed messages sent from list members *NOT* be broken 
by OpenSSL's mailman instance please educate whomever the moderator is on 
this?  Personally I'd nominate Viktor for that activity.

And then, can someone please fix this issue? :)

Error is: Authentication-Results: edge01.zimbra.com (amavisd-new);
	dkim=fail (1024-bit key) reason="fail (message has been altered)"
	header.d=zimbra.com


Thanks!
