I'm now running with this local config instead:

DKIM_SIGN_HEADERS = From:Sender:Reply-To:Subject:Date:Message-ID:To:Cc:MIME-Version:Content-Type:Content-Transfer-Encoding:Content-ID:Content-Description:=Resent-Date:=Resent-From:=Resent-Sender:=Resent-To:=Resent-Cc:=Resent-Message-ID:=In-Reply-To:=References:=List-Id:=List-Help:=List-Unsubscribe:=List-Subscribe:=List-Post:=List-Owner:=List-Archive

Reviewing modern exim source makes me suggest the patch below. This
makes DKIM signature not cover any non-existing List-* headers in the
message to be signed, which seems reasonable to me, and consistent with
RFC 4871:

   The following header fields SHOULD be included in the signature, if
   they are present in the message being signed:
...
   o  List-Id, List-Help, List-Unsubscribe, List-Subscribe, List-Post,
      List-Owner, List-Archive


RFC 6376 does not contain the same wording, so maybe this is a complex
area. Perhaps a review of what other DKIM signing software is using
would be useful? In case there is any established best practice out
there.
