One possibility that comes to mind:

- Remove the sender's DMARC headers+signature **after thoroughly
checking it** (to minimize the amount of UBE/UCE/junk going in)
- Replace the sender's (i.e. 'From:' header) with
list-sender+munched-email(at)postgresql(dot)org (VERP-ified address)

- Add the required headers, footers, change the subject line, etc

- DKIM-sign the resulting message with postgresql.org's keys before
sending it

Yup

Or just strip it, though that trump the sender's explicit preference
(expressed by setting the header)

I might be able to help a bit with implementation if needed.
