FeministMail uses the [http://www.postfix.org/ Postfix] SMTP server, using SASL authentication through Dovecot, LDAP-based virtual mail boxes under <code>/home/vmail</code>, and DKIM signing via OpenDKIM.  Send a mail to a Gmail account and use the "Show original" feature of Gmail to see if the mail passes SPF, DKIM, and DMARC tests.


Postfix is configured to use OpenDKIM to sign outgoing mailIf using a Unix socket to make the processes communicate, make sure the <code>postfix</code> user has permissions to open the socket.
There are also various tools on the web to automatically test the DNS settings for correctness, to check if the domain/IP is on blacklists, etc., which you can find via GoogleAll in all, FeministMail is probably the most complicated service of the FeministWiki, as far as technical background goes.
