Use something like mta1.domain.tld, mta2.domain.tld, mta3.domain.tld etc.? Or use something like mta.domain.tld on all outbound MTA's (all using the same private key)? I think, at the end of the day, the former is the approach best matching the goal of ARC, or? Any thoughts?


Hello Rolf,

good question!
I would say both versions are possible and not wrong. It depends on how similar you think, your MTA1...3 are.
Would you like to express, all host are similar, use a shared signing key.

Otherwise, one ARC signing key per mta don't hurt, add transparency and make automation easier.

Your choice...
