HOWTO

Find published dkim key

In mailheader look for 'd=' and 's=' to get domain and selector, then

dig <selector>._domainkey.<domain> TXT

Check if keys match

dig myselector._domainkey.example.com txt

and save the bit from "p=" to public.key.b64 You will probably need to remove the quotes/spaces:

| sed 's/[\" \"|\"$]//g' 
openssl enc -base64 -d -in public.key.b64 -out public.key
openssl rsa -pubin -inform DER -in public.key -noout -modulus

and compare the shown modulus with

openssl rsa -in private.key -noout -modulus

They should be identical
