It does not only affect @gmail.com but all other email hosted by Google,
too. And you cannot see that from just the domain name. Thus I have
already given up on trying to mail to destinations other than
@debian.org with my @debian.org account.
So yes, you can proclaim that, but it still makes the @debian.org email
address increasingly useless. The requirement essentially boils down to
using DKIM if you want your emails delivered. There already have been
some suggestions in this thread.
