I’m very new to the world of mail servers and have been following all the information I can find to get one set up on an Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64 vm with Mail-in-a-box. Everything works, but mail-tester.com indicates my DKIM record is invalid. Here’s what my zone file looks like:

(Sorry that it’s such a disorganized mess)
Is there a syntax error in here I haven’t seen? Any help would be appreciated!
