DKIM mit Ubuntu und Postfix

Kopie von: 

This is a guide to installing OpenDKIM for multiple domains on a Postfix-installtion on Debian. I tried some other guides but kept running into problems, so this is how I did it.

Among others, Google Gmail and Yahoo mail check your email for a DKIM signature.

Install and Configure OpenDKIM

1. Install OpenDKIM

apt-get install opendkim

Comment: This will install the latest available stable Debian packaged version of OpenDKIM which is currently 2.0.1. This version is already a couple of years old (2010).
If you know how/want to compile sources yourself, then the latest version is 2.4.3 (and 2.5.0 is right around the corner)

2. Edit the OpenDKIM config file

nano /etc/opendkim.conf

Add these rows:

KeyTable           /etc/opendkim/KeyTable

SigningTable       /etc/opendkim/SigningTable

ExternalIgnoreList /etc/opendkim/TrustedHosts

InternalHosts      /etc/opendkim/TrustedHosts

Note: If you run multiple instances of Postfix you need to add this to the opendkim.conf for each instance (or the ones you want to use opendkim)

3.  Edit /etc/opendkim/TrustedHosts

nano /etc/opendkim/TrustedHosts

Add domains, hostnames and/or ip’s that should be handled by OpenDKIM. Don’t forget localhost.

127.0.0.1

localhost

x.253.204.64

x.253.204.32/27

4. Edit /etc/default/opendkim

nano /etc/default/opendkim

Uncomment this row:

SOCKET="inet:12345@localhost" # listen on loopback on port 12345

Generate keys

Repeat these steps to generate keys for each domain you will send email from. Replace mydomain.com with your domain name in examples below.

1. Generate key

mkdir -p /etc/opendkim/keys/mydomain.com

cd /etc/opendkim/keys/mydomain.com

opendkim-genkey -r -d mydomain.com

chown opendkim:opendkim default.private

2. Add domain to KeyTable /etc/opendkim/KeyTable

nano /etc/opendkim/KeyTable

Add line:

default._domainkey.mydomain.com mydomain.com:default:/etc/opendkim/keys/mydomain.com/default.private

3. Add domain to SigningTable /etc/opendkim/SigningTable

nano /etc/opendkim/SigningTable

Add line:

mydomain.comdefault._domainkey.mydomain.com

Note that in OpenDKIM 2.0.1 domain names are case sensitive (supposed to be fixed from 2.3.1 but I have not tested).
This means that in the above example an email from Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt! Zur Anzeige muss JavaScript eingeschaltet sein. will be signed, but an email from Diese E-Mail-Adresse ist vor Spambots geschützt! Zur Anzeige muss JavaScript eingeschaltet sein. will not be signed. The workaround is to add one extra entry for MyDomain.com to SigningTable.

4. Add to DKIM public key to DNS

Add an entry for the public key to the DNS server you are using for your domain. You find the public key here:

cat /etc/opendkim/keys/mydomain.com/default.txt

Start OpenDKIM

/etc/init.d/opendkim start

In the future, if you make any changes to configuration remember to restart: /etc/init.d/opendkim restart

Configure and Restart Postifx

1. Configure Postfix

nano /etc/postfix/main.cf

Add or edit these lines:

milter_default_action = accept

milter_protocol = 6

smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12345

non_smtpd_milters = inet:localhost:12345

2. Restart Postfix

/etc/init.d/postfix reload

Or in my case as i run postfix multi instance:

/etc/init.d/postfix-multi restart

Other

Log files are in the /var/log directory

cat /var/log/mail.log

cat /var/log/mail.warn

cat /var/log/mail.err

Log more info

nano /etc/opendkim.conf

Add this line:

LogWhy yes

For Amavis, just insert one additional configuration directive, e.g. in /etc/amavis/conf.d/50-user

$enable_dkim_verification =1;
