Well to be clear, I think lots of us don't love DKIM. If I recall
correctly, Amazon turned it on somewhat recently and broke all their
employees ability to use company email with the any major mailing
lists. Not just postgresql but also LKML, IETF, etc. And Amazon is not
the first. There is documentation on the internet of Intel [1] and
Google [2] doing the same. And don't use Yahoo for your personal email,
who famously back in 2014 broke every mailing list in the world [3].
Back when I worked at Amazon and they started enforcing, I didn't
bother complaining - I just permanently switched to using my personal
gmail account for open source mailing list participation. I think the
whole DKIM thing is a mess but I don't think it's a postgres problem.
