It means that a receiving system, which otherwise complies with DMARC policy records, has chosen to deviate from a domain owner's request to reject messages that fail DMARC, by virtue of knowing that it went through a mailing list that was trusted.

In other words, it means that the receiving mail system whitelisted a mailing list.

Which - I'll note - Yahoo is not providing for.
