Hi,

thanks to all answers. So it is not allowed to use underscores in DKIM 
selectors but even large companies are using such selectors. So what's the 
usual case than? Try to convince the sender of their problem or ignore the 
error at all? I guess a typically "it depends" case. 😉

Thanks again for the input from all.


Regards
Norbert

RFC 6376 section 3.1 says that a selector is a sequence of dot separated
sub-domain items, which is imported from RFC 5321 which says sub-domain is a
sequence of letters, digits, and hyphens, i.e., a host name.

The underscore in the selector is just wrong.  I don't know what Cloudflare is 
thinking.

R's,
John
