I recently ran into the same problem sending to a KDE list.  In my  
case, I was using a sourceforge.net FROM: address, but actually sending  
through my ISP (frontier.com).  Sourceforge had the DMARC policy that  
mail claiming to be from sourceforge.net should not be accepted if it  
came from anywhere else.  I think the final solution was for them to  
drop that rule, since at least one of the uses of sourceforge is  
exactly that type of aliasing.  I don't think gmail will do the same.

You are using a gmail.com address, but it looks like you might have  
sent it from vanav.org.  In this case, I suspect your only solution  
will be to actually send mail from gmail.com using the gmail.com smtp  
server.

Eric's suggestion to resubscribe from an address at a site which is  
less strict about DMARC rules would work, but I think the underlying  
issue will arise again, as long as you use an smtp server other than  
the one from the From: address you are using.
