DKIM check not signed
Hi, I am hosting my domains at CloudFlare and VPS is on Godaddy (If that useful), I've configured the spf for the domain and checked it by mail-tester.com and it gave me an authorized mail sender, while for DKIM gave me "Your message is not signed with DKIM" despite it is installed and checked by the same tester and mxtoolbox and when use default selector it gave me correct signiture, but why email tester both mail-tester.com and appmaildev.com/en/dkim gave me the same issue that the message is not signed with DKIM!!
Hope find a solution for emails don't sign with DKIM, is there any missing configuration? .. I've searched too much at google but couldn't find any solution there, thank you.

Hello @m.eid Are you using a different selector when checking? What do you get when you query the TXT: dig txt default._domainkey.yourdomain.tld0 -
I use the default selector, and I tested DKIM record with many tools such as mxtoolbox and others, al of them returned success, here result when I tested your command [root@hs01 ~]# dig txt default._domainkey.domain.com ; <<>> DiG 9.9.4-RedHat-9.9.4-73.el7_6 <<>> txt default._domainkey.domain.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 1438 ;; flags: qr rd ra ad; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 1 ;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION: ; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 1452 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;default._domainkey.domain.com.

Hi @m.eid And when you checked this with the services that told you it wasn't signed properly was that shortly after adding it? I see no reason why the dkim signature wouldn't be recognized. 0 -
I've checked it manually with source of email, and didn't find DKIM signature too, it is not there. Note: DNS is hosted by CloudFlare and txt record added there as suggested in Email Deliverability section at CPanel 0 -
Is there any required header has to be added for exim or such that? .. or is there any log file I have to check if there is an error logged? 0 -
There's no log file that would record this, and nothing should need to be added as far as headers are concerned with the DKIM signature. When I query the domain, I get the TXT record for the DKIM Signature, it should be recognized when you send mail. Because this issue will be difficult to troubleshoot through the forums can you please open a ticket using the link in my signature? Once open please reply with the Ticket ID here so that we can update this thread with the resolution once the ticket is resolved. Thanks! 0 -
Ticket ID: 12307521 Missing DKIM Signature at outgoing emails 0 -
It has been solved by CPanel Technical Guy, where he found in Exim configuration send_to_smart_host: driver = manualroute route_list = !+local_domains example.prod.123.secureserver.net transport = remote_smtp the last line has to be like that transport = dkim_remote_smtp Don't know if it is Godaddy's faulty or what, but what is the difference? 0 -
Ahh I wouldn't have had a way to know that you were using a smarthost, I'm really glad the analyst was able to help you get it resolved. Don't know if it is Godaddy's faulty or what, but what is the difference?
The difference between the transports? One is just doing remote smtp the other is sending with your DKIM through remote smtp - when the smarthost was setup this should have been configured to include your dkim from the beginning.0 -

I think it is a Godaddy faulty where they have to either mention that in their documentation, mention that with their support team when talking with them (rather than say it is a CPanel resposibility) or to include it by default so if server admin enabled it it will be attached and if not it will not affect their system. Anyway I appreciate your effort and your great team for helping in this case, thank you so much :D0 -
Thanks for this thread....I was having the exact same issue and caused by the exact same problem with domains running on my Godaddy dedicated server. I spent all day yesterday trying to figure out why DKIM wasn't working despite being near certain is was configured correctly. Simply adding "dkim_" in the correct location in the advanced exim config as shown (I'll paste it again just for SEO purposes so others can find this). Fix for DKIM (no signature) in WHM - go to Exim Configuration Manager / Advanced / then do a browser search for the following text: "driver = manualroute" to find: send_to_smart_host: driver = manualroute route_list = !+local_domains *****.secureserver.net transport = remote_smtp change the last line to: transport = dkim_remote_smtp My server was installed about a year ago. It's nice to see all three authentications passing now for outbound emails: dkim=pass spf=pass dmarc=pass thanks again! 0 -
This is the only solution in my opinion, thank you. Still working in 2022. 0 -
I realize this is an old thread, but giving it a bump as this was the solution to a problem that was plaguing me for a long time... Still valid in 2024.
