The docs refer to <http://duncanthrax.net/exim-experimental/libdkim-1.0.15-tk.tar.gz> two more recent versions are available there, but not easily discoverable, and I don't see documentation about that fact. Tom said about 4.70 that the DKIM implementation is stand-alone (library included in Exim bundle, no additional dependencies), and the new library supports some non-POSIX platforms like Windows (I know). On the other hand, support for domainkeys is dropped - not that I think that's a great loss. > > As to 'binary' and 'distro' ISTR the tools to make the result of > compilation into an RPM or similar 'package' are free, plentiful, and > not hard to utilize. > > If it was a *Pony* you wanted 'compiled', OTOH ..
