No DKIM headers in sent mails from postfix
I have two postfix, one for receiving mails and the other for sending mails, and I am having trouble signing dkim on my outgoing mails. I followed this tutorial.
Logs also is not helping me point to the main problem. OpenDKIM is running fine:

I am really lost. Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated!
Solution 1:
You have wrong modes on the opendkim.sock. Those are 0770 i.e. rwx by owner, rwx by group, nothing for others, where owner is opendkim and group is opendkim, but Postfix runs often as postfix:mail or something like that, so it falls into the category "others" and is disallowed access. You should find mentions of that in the Postfix logs (in Debian we look into /var/log/mail.err).
Also note, the chown you've done was acting on a directory, containing the socket, not the socket itself, so it doesn't suffice.
Try setting 0777 on the opendkim.sock as the one-time test solution:
chmod 0777 /var/spool/postfix/opendkim/opendkim.sock
If it helps, we're on the right track. OpenDKIM recreates the socket with former modes at each restart, so the modes will reset, that's why this solution is one time. To make it persistent, add postfix user (or whichever account the smtpd is running under) into opendkim group, so the second "7" will apply to it (group access which is allowed):
gpasswd -a postfix opendkim
Alternatively (for example, if smtpd runs under nobody), you might change startup script for OpenDKIM slightly, for it to set mode 0777 after socket creation.
