Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist URLs: http://www.sendmail.com/sm/wp/dkim/ http://sourceforge.net/projects/dkim-milter/ http://dkim.org/ I consider it a good thing to have dkim capable software for MTAs in debian. While exim is working on a builtin solution, a milter (kind of plugin) is available for sendmail and postfix (both part of debian). Recently a version 1.0 of it has been released. Information below is cut-and-paste from the mentioned urls. Bye, Joerg DKIM-MILTER Sendmail, Inc. has released a free, Open Source implementation of the DKIM signing and verifying software. A portable API is available to allow DKIM to be embedded into any application. Also provided is a "milter" (mail filter) plugin for Open Source sendmail. About DKIM The DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM) Internet standard enables email senders to digitally sign their messages so that receivers can verify that those messages have not been forged. The DKIM sender authentication scheme allows the recipient of a message to confirm a message originated with the sender's domain and that the message content has not been altered. A cryptography-based solution, DKIM provides businesses an industry-standard method for mitigating email fraud and protecting an organization's brand and reputation at a relatively low implementation cost. The DKIM-milter is supported by: Open Source: sendmail 8.12 or later Open Source: Postfix 2.3 or later
