At one point, Mailman unconditionally removed DomainKey-Signature:,
DKIM-Signature: and Authentication-Results: headers from outgoing
mail. As a result of a discussion on Mailman-Developers [1], this
behavior was made conditional based on the setting of
REMOVE_DKIM_HEADERS which defaults to No. If you want them removed, put

REMOVE_DKIM_HEADERS = Yes

in mm_cfg.py.
