Because dmarc_moderation_action is set to "Munge From" which "applies
the from_is_list Munge From transformation to these messages."

"This action replaces the poster's address in the From: header with the
list's posting address and adds the poster's address to the addresses
in the original Reply-To: header."

"Several protocols now in wide use attempt to ensure that use of the
domain in the author's address (ie, in the From: header field) is
authorized by that domain. These protocols may be incompatible with
common list features such as footers, causing participating email
services to bounce list traffic merely because of the address in the
From: field. This has resulted in members being unsubscribed despite
being perfectly able to receive mail."

And not setting it breaks even more MUAs these days, because DMARC.
Especially Yahoo sucks.
