Mailing lists often do keep DKIM signatures intact. They only alter the rest
of the message, but the transformations they do are stylized enough to allow to
revert them and verify the original signatures. That requires just some
cooperation, because DKIM is so flexible. Both the mailing list and its
posters can operate so as to make reversion possible or not.
For example, Kaspar's message that I'm replying to could not be reverted
because the original signature by ef1p.com signed MIME-Version: and
Content-Type:. Mailing lists need to control the values of those fields. To
allow this kind of interoperability, an author's domain shouldn't sign them.
