Hmm.. I've just sent an email from rbilovol at cisco.com to another Gmail
address, and Gmail says SPF checks passed:
  SPF:	PASS with IP 173.38.203.51
  DKIM:	'PASS' with domain cisco.com
  DMARC:	'PASS'

Does it mean oe-core mailing list's software is incorrectly configured,
or there is something else missing on @cisco.com side?

Yes, that would be great.
