This is one thing where the documentation falls down. I had the same
issue.
Bottom line. You need two TXT records in your DNS.
The first will be an entry for _domainkey in your hwy39.net zone. It
tells the other mail servers what your domainkey policy is. Mine
contains "o=-\; [EMAIL PROTECTED]" The o means the domain
signs all email and the r is the responsible party address.
The second DNS entry is a text record containing your public key. If you
followed the directions verbatim you should have a
directory /var/qmail/control/domainkeys/hw39.net In that directory you
will have two files. One is called private the other is
hwy39.net-dk.txt. The txt file is the public key to put in the DNS
entry. You will create an entry called private._domainkey with the TXT
value in the file. The reason it is called private is because that is
the name on your private key.
If you send out mail under other domain names you will need to create a
directory and key under domainkeys for each domain you handle. Took me
a couple of minutes to figure that one out.
