To enable DKIM signature, you must have created your mail accounts. DKIM is a security measure targeting email spoofing. It is greatly recommended one activates it.
Once its done, just run from inside the directory of docker-compose.yml:
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DomainKeys_Identified_Mail for more details on DKIM.
## Enabling DKIM signature
To enable DKIM signature, you must have created at least one email accounts.
Once its done, just run the following command to generate the signature (here show from inside the directory of docker-compose.yml in order to use a volume on ./config):
docker run --rm \ docker run --rm \
-v "$(pwd)/config":/tmp/docker-mailserver \ -v "$(pwd)/config":/tmp/docker-mailserver \
-ti tvial/docker-mailserver:latest generate-dkim-config -ti tvial/docker-mailserver:latest generate-dkim-config
The default keysize is 2048 for now. If you need to change it (e.g. your DNS-Provider limits the size) provide the size as the first parameter of the command > The default keysize when generating the signature is 2048 bits for now. If you need to change it (e.g. your DNS-Provider limits the size), then provide the size as the first parameter of the command:
>
> docker run --rm \
> -v "$(pwd)/config":/tmp/docker-mailserver \
> -ti tvial/docker-mailserver:latest generate-dkim-config 2048
docker run --rm \ Now the keys are generated, you can configure your DNS server with DKIM signature, simply by adding a TXT record.
-v "$(pwd)/config":/tmp/docker-mailserver \
-ti tvial/docker-mailserver:latest generate-dkim-config 2048
Now the keys are generated, you can configure your DNS server by just pasting the content of `config/opendkim/keys/domain.tld/mail.txt` in your `domain.tld.hosts` zone. If you have direct access to your DNS zone file, then it's only a matter of pasting the content of `config/opendkim/keys/domain.tld/mail.txt` in your `domain.tld.hosts` zone.
After generating DKIM keys you should restart the app.
