Thanks Mark.
Your message via the announce list managed to pass through my email reading spam filters and appeared in my inbox and not the spam folder.
A couple of things to note.  The setting I tweaked in the mailing list program altered the "from field" in the text of the message so it does not reference your complete aol email address.  Second, the reply field now includes BOTH your email address and the announce list address.  I believe that to be a change and to me, it's a little concerning.  Since the inception of this list I have had it configured so that replies go to the announce list.  I hope this change doesn't cause people to end up replying to individuals when they intend to reply to the group.
I want to see how the system behaves for a bit and would like people who send from aol and yahoo addresses to stress things a bit -- both by sending top level messages and replies to messages from others.
If you want to learn more about what happened, do a google on DMARC and toss in AOL or Yahoo.  DMARC stands for Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance
AOL and Yahoo adopted what was considered a very aggressive stance on DMARC to combat spam and which also broke legit mail distribution services like ours.
I just learned that Google/gmail will follow suit this summer.
A new internal mail protocol called ARC which stands for Authenticated Received Chain protocol is in the works which would allow email intermediaries, like good list servers, to function as we'd like.
I do not know when (or if) ARC will be adopted and which service providers will implement ARC.
I will keep an eye on this one and will not bother attempting to migrate the mailing list service we use until there's more clarity on this issue.
