Question

DKIM problem

Hello,

I have a problem with DKIM exported file.

I have read the FortiMail 6.0.3 Administration Guide page 321 how the exported DKIM should look like:

example_com._domainkey IN TXT "t=y; k=rsa; p=MIIBIjA......"

 

When I download the DKIM file from the FortiMail I get something like this:

example_com._domainkey IN TXT ("k=rsa; p=" "MIIBIjA......" "nEQp......")

 

Why is that? How I can use this in the DNS TXT record?

The DKIM checker shows: This doesn't seem to be a valid RSA public key.

 

What should I do with the DKIM file? I have only possibility to add TXT record to DNS manually not importing the dkim file.

    Hi,

    That's only a formatting issue.

    Edit your exported FML dkim register to the standard notation example_com._domainkey IN TXT "t=y; k=rsa; p=MIIBIjA......"

     

    Only in the case your DNS server version  doesn't support a long register, you'll need to use "" to add the second part.

     

    I mean: 

    yourdomain._domainkey   IN TXT  ("k=rsa; p=" "MIIBIjANBg...... very long string..."  "nEQp......")

    Thank you for your update. It seems that the standard notation works.

    Thank you very much!
