I need the real examples (for alsa-devel). The alsa-users mailing list is on
sourceforge and probably dead.

I'm sorry, but it seems that gmail changed something before several weeks for
incoming e-mail and they have weird message rate limit rules for IP address
and content classification. It basically does not work for the mailing list. I
already tried to contact their support, but I've not received any answer.

I already implemented all protections like DKIM, DMARC, SFP. Verified today
using a dmarc report analyzer tool.

Unfortunately, I cannot do much here. I can assist to fix the issues, but I
need to know, what I can improve. I suggest to use another e-mail service. It
seems that google does not care about users now. Or you should ask them what's
exactly wrong.

The current postmaster.google.com stats for alsa-project.org:

User reported spam rate - 0%
DKIM, DMARC, SFP success rate - all 100%
Encryption - 100%
IP reputation - bad
Delivery errors - 40% - 100%
