Amavis DNS query timeout

[Dino Edwards]

So what happens when you run this command:

dig @192.168.xxx.xxx -t txt 20161025._domainkey.google.com txt

where 192.168.xxx.xxx is the IP of your DNS server set in the resolv.conf file of your amavis server?

Yes, so for example on an email received from a @google.com email address, I'll see :

Authentication-Results: my.server.example.com (amavisd-new); dkim=neutral
    reason="invalid (public key: DNS query timeout for 20161025._domainkey.google.com)"
    header.d=google.com


In the headers.

And what I'm saying is that "dig 20161025._domainkey.google.com txt"
on the same server does not time out.  Hence I've no idea why amavis is saying it is ?

Hope this helps ?
