Mailman checks the DMARC policy published to the DNS TXT records of the domain 
in the "From" header of the original message. If the policy is 'p=reject' or 
'p=quarantine', Mailman may modify the "From" header to use the list's email 
address or the server's hostname to prevent rejection due to DMARC, SPF, or 
DKIM checks.

It doesn't treat all senders the same because some people self-host their email 
domain and don't use DKIM or SPF.
