The DKIM section of amavisd-new-docs.html pre-dates the amavisd-new-2.6.0,
which introduced its own mechanism for DKIM signing and verifying mail,
using the same underlying perl module as used by dkimproxy.

The setup is now much simplified, and the number of mail transfers
are reduced. See release notes. I see that mouss answered most of
your concerns on the postfix-users list.

The only caveat I can think of is a problem in altermime when inserting
a HTML disclaimer, it inserts extra CR characters. There is no problem
when inserting plain text disclaimers. I believe it will be fixed in the
next 0.3 release (not yet in 0.3.9). Also, the coming amavisd-new-2.6.2
will strip away such extra CR characters when DKIM-signing and when
sending such mail over SMTP. A temporary workaround (with altermime
0.3.9 doing html disclaimers and amavisd-new-2.6.1) is to wrap altermime
in a shell and pass its output through tr -d "\r"

Actually there is one more problem with Mail::DKIM module, which
affects both amavisd and dkimproxy. If you are unlucky with a length
of your domain and a selector and a signature gets wrapped just after
the "p=" tag, this breaks the signature. Jason is working on it.
If (after declaring DKIM signing keys in amavisd.conf) the command
'amavisd testkeys' does not complain, you are alright even with
Mail::DKIM version 0.32.
