Provided that the body and signed header Jim Fenton  –  Aug 07, 2008 12:45 PM PST

Provided that the body and signed header fields are not altered in the forwarding process, DKIM signatures should be expected to survive.  This specific use case was considered in the design of DKIM and is an advantage of signature-based authentication.

Jim, thank you for clarifying that point. Gadi Evron  –  Aug 07, 2008 3:08 PM PST

Jim, thank you for clarifying that point. I appreciate your correction.

It also seems to me, though, that forwarding may not be the technology of choice for these ISPs.

What are the other technologies of choice? Jim Fenton  –  Aug 08, 2008 12:17 AM PST

I don't really understand the alternatives you mention: Handling exceptions at the MTA is very much like forwarding, and some sort of MX record hack seems even less likely to modify the message in a way that would break the signature.  Am I missing something?
