Question

My web host (HostGator shared server) normally signs outbound emails with DKIM. When I send emails from Drupal 7.69 (and Webform 7.x-4.22 for compatibility with CiviCRM), however, there's no DKIM. Thoughts?

drupal_email_test is a simple webform node that sends an email.

Drupal snippet

host_email_test.php is PHP script that calls mail() and phpinfo().

The email from drupal_email_test doesn't have a DKIM section.

Solution

This is likely a HostGator-specific issue. Drupal sets Return-Path: from https://example.org/admin/config/system/site-information. Since our email domain is different from our hosting domain, HostGator refrained from producing a DKIM signature in the outgoing emails. I expected Drupal to set From: and/or Reply-To:, not Return-Path:. Bad expectations on my part.
