To enable DKIM signature, you must have created your mail accounts. Once its done, just run from inside the directory of docker-compose.yml: docker run --rm \ -v "$(pwd)/config":/tmp/docker-mailserver \ -ti tvial/docker-mailserver:latest generate-dkim-config Now the keys are generated, you can configure your DNS server by just pasting the content of `config/opedkim/keys/domain.tld/mail.txt` in your `domain.tld.hosts` zone. ``` ; OpenDKIM mail._domainkey IN TXT ( "v=DKIM1; k=rsa; " "p=AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBN/AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBN/AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBN/AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBN/AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBN/AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBN/AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBN/AZERTYUIOPQSDFGHJKLMWXCVBN" ) ; ----- DKIM key mail for domain.tld ``` ## Configuration using a web interface: 1. Generate a new record of the type `TXT`. 2. Paste `mail._domainkey` the `Name` txt field. 3. In the `Target` or `Value` field fill in `v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=AZERTYUGHJKLMWX...` 4. In `TTL` (time to live): Time span in seconds. How long the DNS server should cache the `TXT` record. 5. Save. ## Verify-only If you want DKIM to only verify incoming emails, the following version of /etc/opendkim.conf may be useful (right now there is no easy mechanism for installing it other than forking the repo): ``` # This is a simple config file verifying messages only #LogWhy yes Syslog yes SyslogSuccess yes Socket inet:12301@localhost PidFile /var/run/opendkim/opendkim.pid ReportAddress postmaster@my-domain.com SendReports yes Mode v ``` ## Debugging ### Tools * [DKIM-verifer](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/dkim-verifier): A add-on for the mail client Thunderbird. ### DKIM TXT Record You can debug your TXT records with the `dig` tool. ``` dig TXT mail._domainkey.domain.tld ``` Output: ``` ; <<>> DiG 9.10.3-P4-Debian <<>> TXT mail._domainkey.domain.tld ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 39669 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 512 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;mail._domainkey.domain.tld.
