Debian – DKIM- Filter No Signature Data

debiandkimpostfix

I have installed DKIM-Filter on Postfix after reading this tutorial

http://www.unibia.com/unibianet/systems-networking/how-setup-domainkeys-identified-mail-dkim-postfix-and-ubuntu-server

My email now has a DKIM signature but still it is landing in the SPAM folder. Here is the header

    Received-SPF: neutral (google.com: 69.164.193.167 is neither permitted nor denied by best guess record for domain of promote@a2labs.in) client-ip=69.164.193.167;

Also my mail.err file shows

Feb 28 12:17:03 ivineet dkim-filter[32181]: 1F788530E1: no signature data
Feb 28 12:18:02 ivineet dkim-filter[32181]: 432BA530E2: no signature data

How to fix it

Best Answer

Look at the line above the "no signature data", is says something like this:

Jul  4 10:33:46 pa04 dkim-filter[29984]: 9A95B340F6C external host localhost.localdomain attempted to send as mydomain.com
Jul  4 10:33:46 pa04 dkim-filter[29984]: 9A95B340F6C: no signature data

If so, create file /etc/postfix/dkim/hosts with list of hosts who's email to sign and add to the /etc/dkim-filter.conf the following lines:

ExternalIgnoreList      /etc/postfix/dkim/hosts
InternalHosts           /etc/postfix/dkim/hosts
