Can I reset the DKIM settings?
-
@scooke So, the DKIM keys can be arbitrarily named. It's not a problem that it has the old domains name as part of it. In more recent Cloudron version, we have actually started using a hash and not the concrete name because people had similar concern as yours about "referencing" an older name.
If you want to reset this, you have to update the database directly for the moment. You can do it like this:
mysql -uroot -ppassword -e "select domain, dkimSelector from box.mail;"The above command will show the current domain and dkim selector. To update it, something like:
mysql -uroot -ppassword -e "UPDATE box.mail SET dkimSelector='cloudron' WHERE domain='currentdomain';"(please update the domain value accordingly).
As said, this is not a problem as such, so there is no issue leaving it as-is. I will make the dkim selector configurable in the coming release.

I would appear to me that somehow it is an issue.
Like @scooke I both moved my my. domain around (from uniteddiversity.org to uniteddiversity.coop and changed my mail server address from my.uniteddiversity.coop to mail.uniteddiversity.coop )
And when I do a uniteddiversity.coop:email DKIM lookup on https://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx it tells me:
No DKIM Record foundSo I looked in my DNS and found these DKIM records which Cloudron obviously set:
And also, in email status within Cloudon, I have this:
So why are they not being found when I do a uniteddiversity.coop:email DKIM lookup on https://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx ?

@jdaviescoates It appears fine in the DNS.

It appears fine there too.
@girish I was doing it this way:
uniteddiversity.coop:email
As you can see that is still showing an error.

I think the tool wants a domain name. Why are you adding a ":email" in the end? Is that a special syntax on that site?

@jdaviescoates Ahhh, I had to read that a couple of times to grok it. The
:emailis not literal but is the DKIM selector (says so in the text). The DKIM selector in Cloudron iscloudron-uniteddiversityorg(this changes for each installation based on the primary domain. this allows to add same domain on multiple cloudrons).So, try with
uniteddiversity.coop:cloudron-uniteddiversityorgand that does work. -

Great, thanks for working that out!
Next question: did it ever become possible to reset such things?
For not particular reason other than neatness I'd kinda like it to by
cloudron-uniteddiversitycoopinstead, or evenrandomstring_uniteddiversity.coop -

@girish , It's a couple years later and I just stumbled across this while doing some DNS record cleanups and remembering that some use the older style DKIM name and others use the newer style. The "OCD" in me wants to format the older ones to use the newer naming scheme. Is this something that ever made it in the product? I see you mentioned that you "will make the dim selector configurable in the coming release" but I don't think I see a way to do that yet. I do see a way from above in this thread though that should do the trick manually in MySQL. https://forum.cloudron.io/post/40250

@d19dotca we didn't implement this. So, you have to just edit the database. It's in the
mailtable , there is a field calleddkimSelector. If you change it, that's the key it expects . You have to also restart the mail service to pick up the new value in the database.
