My (non-gmail) mail hosting provider also enforces the DMARC settings
that others put in place, so this isn't (just) a gmail issue. Most
people in the field find the p=reject setting that yahoo is using to
be less than optimal, and come to the conclusion that the best course
of action it to avoid sending mail (specifically to mailing lists)
from such providers. All places like my provider and gmail are doing
is enforcing the standard. That others have selected poorly
considered settings is the fault of the site making those selections,
not the site doing the enforcing of the standard.

[the DMARC notifications are, in my view, a very serious privacy
leak, so it should be avoided, but that's a whole separate off-topic
discussion.]
