Yep.  Release branch has been unreliable here at best; moving to dev branch solved a bunch of probs here awhile ago.

Didn't know about em. Thx, will take a look.

A few, large, important clients that mail MUST be received from, that's got badly configured dkim & dmarc, and zero responsiveness to any attempt at a sane discussion about it.

So simply need to get that email past my usually fully reliable milters.  Yes, I understand the risk.  Atm, the risk of NOT getting that mail is greater.
