My recollection was that we decided DKIM has to produce at least one specific output, and that the spec needed to identify what that one particular item was. We never precluded it from making other information available. OpenDKIM makes the entire signature and result available to the caller, so it can use whatever it wants. And that doesn't make it non-compliant. _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
