6 Mail::DKIM::DkimPolicy - represents a DKIM Sender Signing Practices
7 record
8
10 The Sender Signing Practices (SSP) record can be published by any
11 domain to help a receiver know what to do when it encounters an
12 unsigned message claiming to originate from that domain.
13
14 The record is published as a DNS TXT record at
15 _policy._domainkey.DOMAIN where DOMAIN is the domain of the message's
16 "From" address.
17
18 This record format has been superceded by ADSP. See
19 Mail::DKIM::AuthorDomainPolicy for information about ADSP. It is
20 implemented here because at one time it appeared this is what would be
21 standardized by the IETF. It will be removed from Mail::DKIM at some
22 point in the future. The last version of the SSP specification can be
23 found at <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dkim-ssp-02>.
24
26 fetch()
27 Lookup a DKIM signing practices record.
28
29 my $policy = Mail::DKIM::DkimPolicy->fetch(
30 Protocol => 'dns',
31 Author => 'jsmith@example.org',
32 );
33
34 new()
35 Construct a default policy object.
36
37 my $policy = Mail::DKIM::DkimPolicy->new;
38
40 apply()
41 Apply the policy to the results of a DKIM verifier.
42
43 my $result = $policy->apply($dkim_verifier);
44
45 The caller must provide an instance of Mail::DKIM::Verifier, one which
46 has already been fed the message being verified.
47
48 Possible results are:
49
50 accept
51 The message is approved by the sender signing policy.
52
53 reject
54 The message is rejected by the sender signing policy. It can be
55 considered very suspicious.
56
57 neutral
58 The message is neither approved nor rejected by the sender signing
59 policy. It can be considered somewhat suspicious.
60
61 flags()
62 Get or set the flags (t=) tag.
63
64 A colon-separated list of flags. Flag values are:
65
66 y The entity is testing signing practices, and the Verifier SHOULD
67 NOT consider a message suspicious based on the record.
68
69 s The signing practices apply only to the named domain, and not to
70 subdomains.
71
72 is_implied_default_policy()
73 Is this policy implied?
74
75 my $is_implied = $policy->is_implied_default_policy;
76
77 If you fetch the policy for a particular domain, but that domain does
78 not have a policy published, then the "default policy" is in effect.
79 Use this method to detect when that happens.
80
81 location()
82 Where the policy was fetched from.
83
84 If the policy is domain-wide, this will be domain where the policy was
85 published.
86
87 If the policy is user-specific, TBD.
88
89 If nothing is published for the domain, and the default policy was
90 returned instead, the location will be "undef".
91
92 policy()
93 Get or set the outbound signing policy (dkim=) tag.
94
95 my $sp = $policy->policy;
96
97 Outbound signing policy for the entity. Possible values are:
98
99 "unknown"
100 The default. The entity may sign some or all email.
101
102 "all"
103 All mail from the entity is signed. (The DKIM signature can use
104 any domain, not necessarily matching the From: address.)
105
106 "strict"
107 All mail from the entity is signed with Originator signatures.
108 (The DKIM signature uses a domain matching the From: address.)
109
110 signall()
111 True if policy is "all".
112
113 signall_strict()
114 True if policy is "strict".
115
116 testing()
117 Checks the testing flag.
118
119 my $testing = $policy->testing;
120
121 If nonzero, the testing flag is set on the signing policy, and the
122 verify should not consider a message suspicious based on this policy.
123
125 ยท If a sender signing policy is not found for a given domain, the
126 fetch() method should search the parent domains, according to
127 section 4 of the dkim-ssp Internet Draft.
