Back in the day we used aggregation points for inbound and outbound 
mail.   That involved a dedicated inbound box to filter spam and an 
outbound "smarthost" for sending.  Those days are long behind us now.  
There were reasons for setting things up but as times have changed 
(we're no longer limited by resources of a RaQ2 or RaQ3) we've adjusted 
our design over the years.

Given that BlueOnyx (and the other systems) we use support DKIM out of 
the box these days, there's little reason to force email out a separate 
box.  It just creates a layer of complexity that doesn't need to exist.

That said, if you want to use DKIM then you'll need to configure that on 
your relay server.   I don't know what you're using for this purpose, 
but we have a Knowledgebase article that might give a nudge in the right 
direction.   It was created with older BlueOnyx installations in mind 
before DKIM integration made it to the GUI.  While I can't promise this 
will work in every case (or even your specific case!), perhaps it will 
be helpful:

But give some thought on the relay matter.   Is that still the best way 
forward given the current landscape?   That's a question I would ask 
myself but wouldn't answer on your behalf.  ;)
