dbmail forwarding breaks emails signed by domainkeys
by N Sj

Rate this Message:
I'm having problems when forwarding domaikeys (not DKIM) signed emails from dbmail to a mailserver (such as gmail) that checks for DomainKeys.
ebay uses DomainKeys not DKIM for signing their emails, and Yahoo uses both domainkeys and DKIM, so the problem at this moment is only with ebay. From ebay site when I click on "share" an auction with a friend, it sends an email to an email-id on dbmail server which is configured to forward to an address at gmail.com but it fails. As I understand that dbmail forward opens a pipe to sendmail (sendmail command from postfix in this case) which re-writes the From address hence invalidating the email signed using domainkeys. Whereas if email is forwarded without interacting with dbmail such as using virtual_maps or .forward file, then postfix doesn't rewrite any of the headers and all the forwards work fine. I'm having a tough time figuring out a workaround to this problem so any help from anybody would be very much appreciated. Is there any other alternative pipe program that can be used to forward emails. Thanks _______________________________________________ DBmail mailing list DBmail@... http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail |

diff of emails forwarded by dbmail and postfix shows that dbmail changes the "Mime-Version" to "MIME-Version" (upper-case MIME) and splits Content-Type in two lines, second line starting with a TAB before the boundary. Could this be enough to invalidate the domainkey signatures
copy/pasting the diff below but email might not show the tabs or newline, so attaching it as a text file also.

I was able to further narrow down the problem to gmime (not dbmail), which changes "Mime-Version" to uppercase "MIME-Version" and its causing problems with domainkeys signed emails.

I'm using gmime-2.2.24.
I was able to confirm through testing that gmime is changing the header Mime-Version to MIME-Version, its in "gmime/gmime-message.c" Modifying the above file to keep the header as Mime-Version, resolved my other problem with domainkeys for that particular email. I will be looking further into gmime testing over the next week.
