We've begun adding in DKIM implementation for customer VSITEs in order
to help with delivery as some providers have become evermore strict
about what they're receiving. While I'm not in agreement that DKIM is
a 100% wonderful implementation and I certainly do not profess it to be
a panacea for all delivery woes, it seems that at best it helps with
delivery (and prevents delivery into a spam folder) and at worst
pacifies the periodic customer who finds their domain not to be in
compliance with [insert freemail / outsourced mail provder here]'s "best
practices".
I'm making a brief HOW TO guide available in case you'd like to
implement DKIM on a BlueOnyx hosted VSITE. Keep in mind all the usual
disclaimers, it's made available as a courtesy, not guaranteed to work
for your production use, etc etc blah blah. That said, it works for
us. If it works for you, GREAT!
It also assumes you've implemented DKIM service on your server to begin
with. We have an internal runbook document on that but don't have
it sanitized. I can't release that since there is some proprietary
sauce in there but Michael Stauber has previously pointed towards this
tutorial which applies very closely (with some minor tweaks) to a
BlueOnyx server:

All that out of the way, here's the guide for adding DKIM to a BlueOnyx
VSITE:
