Why doesn't dkim sign the letter?
It appears you have accidentally missed the section in the tutorial titled "Connect Postfix to OpenDKIM", which configures OpenDKIM on Unix domain sockets instead of the default TCP configuration.
The postfix
process is chrooted in /var/spool/postfix
, so supporting Unix sockets requires creating a directory for the sockets with appropriate permissions:
sudo mkdir /var/spool/postfix/opendkim
sudo chown opendkim:postfix /var/spool/postfix/opendkim
Change the opendkim
configuration to support domain sockets:
sudo nano /etc/opendkim.conf
Change to match:
#Socket inet:8891@localhost
Socket local:/var/spool/postfix/opendkim/opendkim.sock
Edit main.cf
to support the configuration:
sudo nano /etc/postfix/main.cf
Change:
smtpd_milters = local:opendkim/opendkim.sock
non_smtpd_milters = $smtpd_milters
Restart both processes:
sudo systemctl restart opendkim postfix
