35 This module implements the various components of the DKIM and
36 DomainKeys message-signing and verifying standards for Internet mail.
37 It currently tries to implement these specifications:
38
39 RFC4871, for DKIM
40 RFC4870, for DomainKeys
41 draft-ietf-dmarc-arc-protocol-06, for ARC
42
43 The module uses an object-oriented interface. You use one of two
44 different classes, depending on whether you are signing or verifying a
45 message. To sign, use the Mail::DKIM::Signer class. To verify, use the
46 Mail::DKIM::Verifier class. Simple, eh?
47
48 Likewise for ARC, use the ARC modules Mail::DKIM::ARC::Signer and
49 Mail::DKIM::ARC::Verifier
50
51 If you're sending to test libraries which expect the tags in headers to
52 be sorted, you can set $Mail::DKIM::SORTTAGS to a true value, and all
53 created headers will get sorted keys

65 Problems passing `make test' seem to usually point at a faulty DNS
66 configuration on your machine, or something weird about your OpenSSL
67 libraries.
68
69 The "author signing policy" component is still under construction. The
70 author signing policy is supposed to identify the practice of the
71 message author, so you could for example reject a message from an
72 author who claims they always sign their messages. See
73 Mail::DKIM::Policy.
