Hello,

I have a question regarding DKIM signing on Postfix bounce back messages.

I was tuning my Dovecot installation around quotas.  I sent a test message from 
Hotmail to a test account on my server to test generation of a bounce back when 
a user exceeds their quota.  The message was successfully generated and then 
relayed via Postfix back to the Hotmail account, but I noticed the bounce back 
message went into the Hotmail junk folder.

Inspecting the message I saw that I was not DKIM signing messages generated by 
Postfix or via sendmail.  I changed my Postfix config to include:

    /etc/postfix/main.cf
        internal_mail_filter_classes = bounce
        non_smtpd_milters = unix:/var/run/opendkim/opendkim.sock

Generating a new test message confirmed that bounce back messages are now DKIM 
signed . . . BUT I noticed this line in: man 5 postconf

    internal_mail_filter_classes
        NOTE: It's generally not safe to enable content inspection of 
Postfix-generated email messages.

My question is - will enabling DKIM on bounce back messages cause me problems 
or is that warning more for content filters that attempt to mangle/modify the 
bounce back messages ?

Thanks,

- J
