This was already happening and it already had had a very ugly
consequence: we had to ban Yahoo addresses from subscribing to the list,
because since the emails sent by the list from Yahoo subscribers were
"invalid" per DMARC, the postgresql.org servers were being flagged as
spammers, causing all sorts of trouble. I think we'll be able to accept
Yahoo subscribers to the lists after the migration ... assuming they
still exist, of course.
