[qmailtoaster] Re: DKIM and DomainKeys and the Toaster
Great. So the only piece that's missing is checking inbound messages. Anyone care to look into this? I don't know if Jake has already or not. -- -Eric 'shubes' On 02/18/2011 08:57 AM, Martin Waschbüsch wrote: Eric, Jake's instructions work like a charm and also note: that implementation can take care of both DKIM and DK (both of which I am making use of on my toaster).

Re: [qmailtoaster] DKIM and DomainKeys and the Toaster
Hi Dan. I've been looking through logfiles without stumbling into any issues regarding Domainkeys. I have also been using Domainkeys for some time now without any (known to me) issues. What have You found - let me know and I will check my system. Regards, Finn On 18-02-2011 03:39, Dan McAllister wrote: Greeting QMT and QTP affectionados...
