Hi all,

The problem with the stock domainkey configuration is that it will only sign 
things when they enter the queue. If any application uses qmail as sendmail 
replacement (e.g. a locally installed squirrelmail or horde webmail can be 
configured to do it), then the message will not be signed.
The DKIM replacement (there was a video Jake did on that) is much better - it 
will sign messages when they LEAVE the system and it can be configured to do 
DKIM and Domainkeys.

I'd really recommend replacing the stock domainkeys config by the dkim 
enhancement. There should also be a page on the wiki about it.

Thanks,

Martin
