Possibility to activate DKIM and DomainKey without active local DNS

Please make possible generating and activating DKIM/DomainKey without having active local DNS server. Consider following situation:

You have a website that use as sender your domain when sending email and you are want to follow best practices in order to reach inbox, but this domain uses another server for DNS (cloudflare for example, godday, etc.). In this case you need to have DKIM/DomainKey signed mails without the need to activate local DNS server. Also mail management could be set off for that domain, but mails still should be able to be signed.

I believe that this scenrario is real and for a lot of people this will be very useful.

Let others correct me or add/edit the request to match best the need.

    How about obtaining the DKIM key for the server/hostname itself?

    Hello

    We hope that you are all fine in this very special situation....

    Today we have published a new extension : massive adjust mailbox : https://ext.plesk.com/packages/5c416ede-d760-4a06-9a61-97f90bf519c5-adjust-massive-mailbox

    With this extension, you will be able to:
    - Check spam parameters for all domain mailboxes
    - Change spam parameters massively for all chosen domain mailboxes
    - Check quota parameters for all domain mailboxes
    - Change quota parameters massively for all chosen domain mailboxes
    - See the dkim key of a domain if it's enabled (helpful when using an external DNS system)
    - Order mailbox by used space

    We still have the same price policy, only 4$/month for server.

    Thanks and regards!

    from https://docs.plesk.com/en-US/onyx/administrator-guide/mail/antispam-tools/dkim-protection.59433/ "Important: DKIM validation works only for real domains that use the Plesk's DNS server. It will not work if you use an external DNS service because Plesk must be able to add the DKIM-related records to the DNS zone of a domain. "
    But I could enable local dns (still not use it) , go to to "Use DKIM spam protection system to sign outgoing email messages " in mail settings uncheck use dkimi, apply, check dkim again , apply bach to dns settings and you have there default._domainkey.yoursite.com. TXT v=DKIM1;
    just copy that to real DNS !

    Hi, It looks like nobody cares are about this important feature of DKIM. The suggestion was created so long ago and no votes at all. As far as I can see current DKIM implementation even on latest Plesk version doesn't cover this.
