Hi!

I'm also looking into optimizing my DKIM configuration, especially which
headers to sign. Unfortunately, DMARC reports tell you only that the DKIM
verification failed but not why. The default for dkim_sign_headers doesn't
work well for me.

There some changes between the RFCs:

RFC4871, Section 5.5., Recommended Signature Content

    The following header fields SHOULD be included in the signature, if
    they are present in the message being signed:


    o  From (REQUIRED in all signatures)
    o  Sender, Reply-To
    o  Subject
    o  Date, Message-ID
    o  To, Cc
    o  MIME-Version
    o  Content-Type, Content-Transfer-Encoding, Content-ID, Content-
       Description
    o  Resent-Date, Resent-From, Resent-Sender, Resent-To, Resent-Cc,
       Resent-Message-ID
    o  In-Reply-To, References
    o  List-Id, List-Help, List-Unsubscribe, List-Subscribe, List-Post,
       List-Owner, List-Archive



RFC6376, Section 5.4.1, Recommended Signature Content

    o  From (REQUIRED; see Section 5.4)
    o  Reply-To
    o  Subject
    o  Date
    o  To, Cc
    o  Resent-Date, Resent-From, Resent-To, Resent-Cc
    o  In-Reply-To, References
    o  List-Id, List-Help, List-Unsubscribe, List-Subscribe, List-Post,
       List-Owner, List-Archive


Wouldn't it make sense to update the default for dkim_sign_headers
accordingly? Anyway, I'll try RFC6376's recommended headers and hope it
will decrease my DKIM verification issues.

ciao
