Does version 5.x support DKIM?

I couldn't really find any info on DKIM support in version 5, but finding out that more mail is getting rejected now than ever before without the DKIM signing, so wondering if there's any way to do this in AMS now. Anyone?
Thanks!

We have started work on DKIM but it's not released yet. However, most email servers will require either SPF or DKIM but not both so make sure you have SPF set up.

Ok Thanks! Gmail is the problem child. They don't seem to be supporting SPF anymore (no account I create is able to send mail to gmail accounts - this is a recent thing now)

It's only last month that I had a customer who couldn't send to Gmail but after helping them set up SPF properly, they were able to. Make sure your SPF record is configured properly. You can find sites online to test your SPF records for your domain. You need to create a TXT record for each domain you send from on Ability Mail Server. Generally just a simple record (shown below) which allows your MX record to send should works since this should point to your Ability Mail Server IP.

v=spf1 mx ~all

Along the lines of DKIM, Google, Yahoo etc are beginning to require DMARC as of 2/1/24 for senders of ~5k or more emails per day; no further info at present as to when it may be required for ALL connections, but it'll be coming down the pike. Looking forward to utilizing DKIM in AMS; possible to expect this year?

Thanks for the info. We have started development on DKIM but need to find some time to finish this feature.
