Right, I had to change qmail to make it add DKIM signatures to outgoing
e-mail.  You can see the signature in the headers of this very message.
In fact we add both a DKIM and a DomainKey signature.

If we stick with qmail, then in the future we will have to patch it to
add IPv6 support.

In general I like qmail and ezmlm quite a bit, but I'm not aware of any
coherent support for them.
