It is, but not DKIM-drain-bramaged. I PGP-sign when sending from my 
linux PCs and SF injects their ads into the signed part. <tinfoil

:) How would I know: it got thrown away, I never knew it existed.

Seriously, though, for me gmail is the only one that doesn't deliver 
wanted mail and sticks it into their "all mail" -- despite the blanket 
.forward I have in there. On my work MTA I pretend DMARC doesn't exist 
and I don't spend any more time on spam now than I did in 2007.
