Package: dkim-filter Version: 2.6.0.dfsg-1 Severity: important I tag this bug as important because some people are prevented from using DKIM due to the configuration of some list servers that are important to them (such as lists.debian.org).
The DKIM milter should support the use of the length field based on the recipient address. Any mail sent to an address matching @lists\. should have the length field used by default. The list server will either strip the DKIM field (as the version of Mailman in Lenny does) in which case it doesn't matter what you do, or it will send the mail through with no changes (as the lists.debian.org server does) in which case any subscriber who performs DKIM checks will regard the mail as invalid if it does not use the length feature. The length field can be used for all mail to avoid this problem, but then you get the same issue if the mail server prepends [listname] to the Subject line. To resolve this the DKIM milter needs to support a list of recipient addresses for which no DKIM headers will be used. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=500965 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=500966 Ideally the list server would fix this. I've filed the above two bug reports against lists.debian.org and I expect that if nothing else a routine upgrade after Lenny will resolve it. But we should expect that there will be significant numbers of mail servers out there that won't be upgraded for years. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
