I have been running dkim-milter-2.8.3 for some time now on my linux box with 
sendmail and 
it has been running great. Is opendkim something I should upgrade to? And does 
it require a 
clean install? I was reading the opendkim docs and did not see any upgrade docs.

Thanks

Bob

    Thanks again Todd and sorry about the obfuscate.

    Not really happy with domaincontrol.com, their webmanagement sucks, pops 
    up occasional errors and it's terrible slow. Maybe planning moving my 
    domains. Will see how it will work with opendkim.

    I think that I will implement opendkim today and remove dkim-filter. Will 
try to 
    find some good how-to (ubuntu 10.04 postfix/opendkim) with support for 
    peerlist... I think that's how it's called the Internalhosts there.

    Thanks

    Ok, but I'll mention that when you obfuscate things like that, you
    make it impossible for us to diagnose and see the real problem. If
    you're obfuscating in the future, please announce it so that we will
    know to overlook that.
    
    Hmmm, postfix, don't really have any experience with milters and
    postfix, so you'll have to ask others for more help.
    
    One thing that I do see that is really weird is this:
    
    centos48[r...@smtp4 mail]# dig +trace -t txt mail._domainkey.zaaam.com
    2>&1 | grep mail._domainkey | grep -v txt
    mail._domainkey.zaaam.com. 0 IN NS WlVRXnlaUoaZ._domainkey.zaaam.com.
    
    centos48[r...@smtp4 mail]# dig +trace -t txt mail._domainkey.zaaam.com
    2>&1 | grep mail._domainkey | grep -v txt
    mail._domainkey.zaaam.com. 0 IN NS OZQZRVjdXoPK._domainkey.zaaam.com.
    
    centos48[r...@smtp4 mail]# dig +trace -t txt mail._domainkey.zaaam.com
    2>&1 | grep mail._domainkey | grep -v txt
    mail._domainkey.zaaam.com. 0 IN NS UcimUfdKNjjV._domainkey.zaaam.com.
    
    centos48[r...@smtp4 mail]# dig +trace -t txt mail._domainkey.zaaam.com
    2>&1 | grep mail._domainkey | grep -v txt
    mail._domainkey.zaaam.com. 0 IN NS TkdiOKUSSeim._domainkey.zaaam.com.
    
    I'm not saying that's what is wrong, but it sure is very odd. If I
    query your two nameservers directly, I get the same strange results:
    
    centos48[r...@smtp4 mail]# dig -t txt mail._domainkey.zaaam.com
    @ns25.domaincontrol.com
    
    ; <<>> DiG 9.2.4 <<>> -t txt mail._domainkey.zaaam.com 
@ns25.domaincontrol.com
    ; (1 server found)
    ;; global options: printcmd
    ;; Got answer:
    ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 4691
    ;; flags: qr cd; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 0, AUTHORITY: 1, ADDITIONAL: 0
    
    ;; QUESTION SECTION:
    ;mail._domainkey.zaaam.com. IN TXT
    
    ;; AUTHORITY SECTION:
    mail._domainkey.zaaam.com. 0 IN NS VYYiMQkZLYfc._domainkey.zaaam.com.
    
    I am going to guess that something in the DNS query that dkim-filter
    is doing is triggering the weird result above. This will probably
    require packet dumps of dns lookups going to your dns servers (or what
    dns lookups are coming from the mail server attempting to verify the
    signature). Overall, it looks like something in DNS is configured
    incorrectly at domaincontrol.com, or you are somehow unearthing a bug
    in their dns software.
    
    Googling, I found this:
     http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg06399.html
    ...which may not be related.
    
    > Should I remove dkim and install Opendkim then?
    
    I think you should consider using opendkim, yes, because it's a newer
    version with another year of development and improvements. You'll
    also find more people with milter/postfix experience and actual
    operation. However, I will also advise that if dkim-filter does not
    generate signatures that verify, that you will likely have the same
    problem with opendkim until you figure out what's wrong.
