Hi Joh, 

DKIM is a little harder to setup than SPF, SPF only
requires that you define a TXT record in your DNS. DKIM requires that
plus signed messages on the outbound mail server (the "last" one in your
outbound network communicating to the destination MTA). 

It must be
your last as you can't have the email header modified after DKIM
signing. 

There's plenty of references on how to do this if you search
the net, but you'll need more technical knowledge to implement if you
wish to go that route. 

DKIM signing would really only help spam forged
as coming from your domain, which may not be a problem unless your a
large email provider that spammers wish to forge. 

DKIM checks inbound
are useful though, we use those for our customers to determine spammers
forging yahoo and gmail addresses.
