Thanks, the possible solutions found so far:
1) upgrade mailman to 2.1.16 which has an option to replace From header
with the address of the mailing list. The really big inconvenient is
that all emails will be handled like this, losing the sender
information, no matter is from yahoo/hotmail or not. Another
inconvenient is that it might require manual installation, since 2.1.16
is not packaged on old debian stable, adding overhead in maintenance ...
unless some good sysadmin around here provides some backports
2) ask those people with yahoo/hotmail/... to use different email provider
Combined, yahoo+hotmail account for a bit more than 200 addresses on
sr-users.
What people here prefer? Any other solution?
Cheers,
Daniel

Is anyone here aware of similar issues and
potential fixes? I guess
yahoo/hotmail servers simply reject the emails sent by mailman of
mailing lists.
Any hint would be appreciated...
It's DMARC at work:

The subejct says it all:
"Yahoo breaks every mailing list in the world including the IETF's"

Please don't. Mailing list mangling the reply-to header are already worse
enough, mangling the From makes it unbearable.

But with about 8 posts in the last 4 years, half of them spam.

Just automatically remove addresses that bounce a few times, it is commonly
done on many mailinglists. Recipients are themselves reponsible for a properly
operating mailserver.
