Yeah, oversigning indeed. I think the recommendation from the DKIM RFC is about signing
and not oversigning. I've changed the preferences for DKIM into:

dkim_sign_headers = +From:+Sender:+Reply-To:+Subject:+Date:+Message-ID:+To:+Cc:
+MIME-Version:+Content-Type:+Content-Transfer-Encoding:+Content-ID:+Content-
Description:+Content-Disposition:=Resent-Date:=Resent-From:=Resent-Sender:=Resent-
To:=Resent-Cc:=Resent-Message-ID:+In-Reply-To:+References:=List-Id:=List-Help:=List-
Unsubscribe:=List-Subscribe:=List-Post:=List-Owner:=List-Archive
