dk-filter, postfix, and mailscanner

[Jason Ede]

I've been looking at this too and if you've a single instance of postfix then I believe you can't do it as it signs the message before it gets passed to mailscanner and then the mailscanner stuff changes the email invalidating the signature.

The solution is to have multiple instances of postfix. The first instance accepts and scans the email using mailscanner and then the email gets passed to  the second instance which does the signing on the way out.

If you can update to postfix >2.6 then it is much better supported from within postfix and http://www.postfix.org/MULTI_INSTANCE_README.html documents how to do it. We're in process of setting up a system that uses multiple instances and once it's all complete I hope to add what we've learnt to the wiki.
