thanks to a friendly reader of this list, I tested the mail also with aboutmy.email.

I can confirm now that when the Content-Encoding is 8bit, it gets bounced by Mimecast, and also flagged as erroneus by aboutmy.email. When I switch to Quote-Printable, the mail passes both just fine.

If you’re sending 8BITMIME payloads to aboutmy.email that’s probably your problem. We don’t currently advertise 8BITMIME, and flag any non-ascii character in the transaction as a problem.

8bitmime is ok in port 25, but it should be disabled in content filters and signers, so its signed only as 7bit content

A lot of MXs advertise 8BITMIME, and many others will accept non-ascii payloads even if they don’t, so violating it is a fairly common mistake that doesn’t get noticed right away.

yes i have lost the howto link for how to make sure amavisd disables 8bit mime before it dkim sign its emails, try google it

But at that point you’re not sending email, so you’re outside the scope of what DKIM promises to do.

if just maillist begin doing ARC-validate before mailman3 and friends break dkim, it would not be so much disaster

its quite funny since all using rspamd where it all is supported, but only a fail in mailflow so it see it all breaks
