I have been thinking about this all day, with increasing hopelessness
:-(

Is there even a "best practice" for mailing lists, what they do with
incoming DKIM signatures? I see that this list removes them, and it
really has no choice because it modifies the From header (and maybe
the Subject too, although I won't know about it because I hide it in
my MUA). But the postgres list must keep them, if they were a problem
in my messages.

As it is now, I'm inclined to just stop signing messages to lists.
