I currently have mailcow running, but I was expecting tweaks needed due to domainkeys or something.

I don't have an MX setup on opennic anymore.  Sorry. I only have it to email out if needed and I haven't needed to in a long long time.  I'm sure someone else can chime in with one.

Anyone with Opennic or ICANN email address can email my server.  I personally have mine setup with 2 ip.  First is icann and if that fails it queries opennic.  Honestly I set this up years ago and never ended up using it but I do know it works from testing

and from which mail server do you get e-mails?
only from them operating in the OpenNIC universe, all others can't ...

no one with GMX, GMail, Hotmail, Outlook.com, ... can send you an e-mail ...

Just point your servers DNS address at an opennic DNS IP. I do this with my mailcow server.

you want to run a mailserver, that accepts e-mails of a domain from the
OpenNIC universe?

if you think, you would get less SPAM, you won't get any emails ;-)

because no email server outside the OpenNIC universe knows how to post
such emails ...
