If there’s no dkim signature, you can’t check for dkim records in dns. The 
selector for a dkim signature is arbitrary - there’s no one dns lookup you can 
do to see all possible dkim records for a domain. 

You can use ADSP - it’s old and I don’t know how many domains have ADSP records 
these days, but it lets a domain specify that all mail must be dkim signed to 
be considered valid.  

We tell our customers to add an ADSP record, and we use it when checking their 
incoming mail to help identify forgeries. I don’t know that it helps much with 
mail from non-customers, though.  I’ll have to check and see how often our 
rules hit for that.
