Folks, I believe there was only one response to Murray's query. His request was not from idle curiosity.
There is a serious discussion underway, looking for DKIM features that are clearly essential and those that might not be. This requires feedback from the folks using DKIM. Like yourselves. Dkim-milter is a significant, free resource. It really is not asking all that much of those benefiting from this free software that they (yoou) provide some feedback about the system is enables. Please reply to Murray's survey, indicating the features you rely on now. Feel free also to indicate the ones you do not expect to ever use. d/ Murray S.
