With respect to DKIM, anybody who filters based on broken signatures without

This mailing list removes the DKIM signature of the poster.  An ADSP 
policy of "all" means that all mail from the domain is signed with an 
Author Domain Signature (d= tag).  As there isn't a valid DKIM 
signature, the message can get rejected.

If the ADSP policy is "discardable" and there isn't an Author Domain 
Signature, the mail can be discarded, i.e. you don't even want a rejection.

If this mailing list did not remove the DKIM signature, the receivers 
would still get an invalid signature as the mailing list modifies the 
subject line and adds a footer.  The ADSP policy will be interpreted as above.
