Hmm, good catch, but that one was on me just now -- I just resent the
mail as I got it through the v9fs list to reuse recipients instead of
the one I had sent before so I did send a bogus list-id, which happened
to get signed.
... looking at list archives it looks like majordomo took that to be a
spam and didn't forward the mail at all, that's a discrete way to sneak
a direct mail without any Cc!
I was about to add it to ignored headers for signing but I'll just have
to be careful about that now. Or figure how to make mutt drop it first.

The problems I had with dkim are all lists that add footers so really
not much to do about header filtering (normally lists would change the
from when they do that or change subject, but for some reason the two
I'm thinking of don't, one of the two even strips dkim headers so even
the body length flag (l=) isn't helping)
I haven't had problems with kernel lists which don't mess with key
headers, good job admins.

Anyway, it's a bit off topic -- good to know new mail didn't go to spam
at least :)
