Re: How bad is to have DKIM signature enabled, without dns txt record

It's better to sign DKIM signature and public correct public key in DNS record.

How to use signed DKIM signature is totally up to the recipient server, usually SpamAssassin just gives it a low score if signed but invalid (no DNS record or incorrect).
