I got it to set up DKIM, I sent a test mail to check-[email protected] and reply was :

SPF check:          pass
DomainKeys check:   neutral
DKIM check:         pass
SpamAssassin check: ham

looks good, but why DomainKeys check just neutral ? in the mail-header I see the DKIM-signature, is that a big problem that its just neutral ? how to fix that ?

The check is neutral because DomainKeys is not DKIM. From the Wikipedia DomainKeys article:

DomainKeys (informally DK) is a deprecated e-mail authentication system designed by Yahoo to verify the DNS domain of an e-mail sender and the message integrity.

Aspects of DomainKeys, along with parts of Identified Internet Mail, were combined to create DomainKeys Identified Mail (DKIM), which is now widely used.

Both DomainKeys and DKIM were published in May 2007, DomainKeys as an "historical" protocol, and DKIM as its standards-track replacement.

You have already "fixed" the problem by using the the newer standard, DKIM.
