I'm certainly sorry to hear that.

This is often not under their control (are you aware of some way to get
GMail to do that...? Your email certainly includes the subject in the
DKIM signature) and, even if it was, I doubt we'd be able to get the
majority of users to actually do this, meaning we would continue to send
out lots of email with invalid DKIM signatures, or to only have the
Subject mangling on a subset of the emails, neither of which is
acceptable.

Unfortunately, DKIM is a thing and it's not likely to be changed very
easily.

Thanks!
