Yes it’s configured and the email “sent” by discourse via the `yyy.com` SMTP server passes SPF, DKIM and DMARC without issues (atleast from the “Send test email” page in the admin console).

This issue is happening if I set a gmail address as the `reply_by_email_address` to a `gmail.com` address instead of the `yyy.com` address. Is there something I can do for this setup so that DMARC doesn’t fail when set to `reply_by_email_address` to a gmail address while keeping the outgoing server as `yyy.com` ?

Can it not parse the rest of the content/attachments in the bounced email to extract that information if it can’t what it need in the “obvious” place (or atleast provide an option in settings to do that with the necessary warnings about impersonation)
