Description Steve Moerk 2007-11-13 22:27:15 UTC
emerge --config mail-filter/dkim-milter produces a TXT record which includes g=\;
I'm new to DKIM, but as far as I can tell that prevents this key from working at all.  Changing the TXT record to have g=* seems to be working, and from what I can gather the g= entry may not be necessary at all.


Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.emerge --config mail-filter/dkim-milter
2.accept default selector name of mydomain.com
3.select 1024 bit key

Actual Results:  
mydomain.com._domainkey   IN   TXT  "g=\; k=rsa\; ...

Expected Results:  
mydomain.com._domainkey   IN   TXT  "g=*\; k=rsa\; ...

You're right. Fixed in cvs (w/o revision bump) by replacing g= with v=DKIM1.

Good, I was hoping I wasn't making a fool of myself ;)

Otherwise an excellent set of instructions for initial setup - thanks for making this a relatively painless implementation.
