The DKIM module does attempt to check for the presence and usability of the Mail::DKIM module. The code is in the _dkim_load_modules routine in Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::DKIM. Will need to spend a little time in that function to see if I can figure out what's going on. > A user who configures his mail system (e.g. via procmail) to reject > messages with T_DKIM_INVALID ends up in losing legitimate mail! *Any* user who chooses to reject mail based on an invalid DKIM signature for any reason is making a mistake and will lose legitimate mail: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dkim#Content_modification Ultimately, though I reset this bug's severity to 'important', I really think this error is entirely cosmetic and the appropriate severity is 'minor'. T_DKIM_INVALID does not, and should not, contribute to a message's spam score by default. noah
