In theory they could survive, if the construction of the multipart/digest from the MLM preserved all of the signed data from the original submission. Then each contained message/rfc822 part could be DKIM-evaluated on its own. And the MLM could sign the overall message. I've never heard of that stated as a desired thing, though. _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
