         use Mail::DKIM::TextWrap;  #recommended
         # create a signer object
         my $dkim = Mail::DKIM::Signer->new(
                         Algorithm => "rsa-sha1",

             s/\015$//;
             # use SMTP line terminators
             $dkim->PRINT("$_\015\012");
         }
         $dkim->CLOSE;

         print $signature->as_string;
DESCRIPTION
       This class is the part of Mail::DKIM responsible for generating
       signatures for a given message. You create an object of this class,
       specifying the parameters of the signature you wish to create, or
       specifying a callback function so that the signature parameters can be
       determined later. Next, you feed it the entire message using "PRINT()",
       completing with "CLOSE()". Finally, use the "signatures()" method to
       access the generated signatures.
   Pretty Signatures
       Mail::DKIM includes a signature-wrapping module (which inserts
       linebreaks into the generated signature so that it looks nicer in the
       resulting message. To enable this module, simply call
         use Mail::DKIM::TextWrap;
       in your program before generating the signature.
CONSTRUCTOR
   new()
       Construct an object-oriented signer.
         # create a signer using the default policy
         my $dkim = Mail::DKIM::Signer->new(
                         Algorithm => "rsa-sha1",
                         Method => "relaxed",
                         Domain => "example.org",
                         Selector => "selector1",
                         KeyFile => "private.key",
                    );
         # create a signer using a custom policy
         my $dkim = Mail::DKIM::Signer->new(
                         Policy => $policyfn,
                    );
       The "default policy" is to create a DKIM signature using the specified
       parameters, but only if the message's sender matches the domain.  The
       following parameters can be passed to this new() method to influence
       the resulting signature: Algorithm, Method, Domain, Selector, KeyFile,
       Identity, Timestamp.
       If you want different behavior, you can provide a "signer policy"
       instead. A signer policy is a subroutine or class that determines
       signature parameters after the message's headers have been parsed.  See
       the section "SIGNER POLICIES" below for more information.
       See Mail::DKIM::SignerPolicy for more information about policy objects.
       In addition to the parameters demonstrated above, the following are
       recognized:
       Key rather than using "KeyFile", use "Key" to use an already-loaded
           Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey object.
METHODS
   PRINT()
       Feed part of the message to the signer.
         $dkim->PRINT("a line of the message\015\012");
       Feeds content of the message being signed into the signer.  The API is
       designed this way so that the entire message does NOT need to be read
       into memory at once.
       Please note that although the PRINT() method expects you to use SMTP-
       style line termination characters, you should NOT use the SMTP-style
       dot-stuffing technique described in RFC 2821 section 4.5.2.  Nor should
       you use a <CR><LF>.<CR><LF> sequence to terminate the message.
   CLOSE()
       Call this when finished feeding in the message.
         $dkim->CLOSE;
       This method finishes the canonicalization process, computes a hash, and
       generates a signature.
   add_signature()
       Used by signer policy to create a new signature.
         $dkim->add_signature(new Mail::DKIM::Signature(...));
       Signer policies can use this method to specify complete parameters for
       the signature to add, including what type of signature. For more
       information, see Mail::DKIM::SignerPolicy.
   algorithm()
       Get or set the selected algorithm.
         $alg = $dkim->algorithm;
         $dkim->algorithm("rsa-sha1");
   domain()
       Get or set the selected domain.
         $alg = $dkim->domain;
         $dkim->domain("example.org");
   load()
       Load the entire message from a file handle.
         $dkim->load($file_handle);
       Reads a complete message from the designated file handle, feeding it
       into the signer.  The message must use <CRLF> line terminators (same as
       the SMTP protocol).
   headers()
       Determine which headers to put in signature.
         my $headers = $dkim->headers;
       This is a string containing the names of the header fields that will be
       signed, separated by colons.
   key()
       Get or set the private key object.
         my $key = $dkim->key;
         $dkim->key(Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(File => "private.key"));
       The key object can be any object that implements the sign_digest()
       method.  (Providing your own object can be useful if your actual keys
       are stored out-of-process.)
       If you use this method to specify a private key, do not use
       "key_file()".
   key_file()
       Get or set the filename containing the private key.
         my $filename = $dkim->key_file;
         $dkim->key_file("private.key");
       If you use this method to specify a private key file, do not use
       "key()".
   method()
       Get or set the selected canonicalization method.
         $alg = $dkim->method;
         $dkim->method("relaxed");
   message_originator()
       Access the "From" header.
         my $address = $dkim->message_originator;
       Returns the "originator address" found in the message, as a
       Mail::Address object.  This is typically the (first) name and email
       address found in the From: header. If there is no From: header, then an
       empty Mail::Address object is returned.
       To get just the email address part, do:
         my $email = $dkim->message_originator->address;
       See also "message_sender()".
   message_sender()
       Access the "From" or "Sender" header.
         my $address = $dkim->message_sender;
       Returns the "sender" found in the message, as a Mail::Address object.
       This is typically the (first) name and email address found in the
       Sender: header. If there is no Sender: header, it is the first name and
       email address in the From: header. If neither header is present, then
       an empty Mail::Address object is returned.
       To get just the email address part, do:
         my $email = $dkim->message_sender->address;
       The "sender" is the mailbox of the agent responsible for the actual
       transmission of the message. For example, if a secretary were to send a
       message for another person, the "sender" would be the secretary and the
       "originator" would be the actual author.
   selector()
       Get or set the current key selector.
         $alg = $dkim->selector;
         $dkim->selector("alpha");
   signature()
       Access the generated signature object.
         my $signature = $dkim->signature;
       Returns the generated signature. The signature is an object of type
       Mail::DKIM::Signature. If multiple signatures were generated, this
       method returns the last one.
       The signature (as text) should be prepended to the message to make the
       resulting message. At the very least, it should precede any headers
       that were signed.
   signatures()
       Access list of generated signature objects.
         my @signatures = $dkim->signatures;
       Returns all generated signatures, as a list.
SIGNER POLICIES
       The new() constructor takes an optional Policy argument. This can be a
       Perl object or class with an apply() method, or just a simple
       subroutine reference. The method/subroutine will be called with the
       signer object as an argument. The policy is responsible for checking
       the message and specifying signature parameters. The policy must return
       a nonzero value to create the signature, otherwise no signature will be
       created. E.g.,
         my $policyfn = sub {
             my $dkim = shift;
             # specify signature parameters
             $dkim->algorithm("rsa-sha1");
             $dkim->method("relaxed");
             $dkim->domain("example.org");
             $dkim->selector("mx1");
             # return true value to create the signature
             return 1;
         };
       Or the policy object can actually create the signature, using the
       add_signature method within the policy object.  If you add a signature,
       you do not need to return a nonzero value.  This mechanism can be
       utilized to create multiple signatures, or to create the older
       DomainKey-style signatures.
         my $policyfn = sub {
             my $dkim = shift;
             $dkim->add_signature(
                     new Mail::DKIM::Signature(
                             Algorithm => "rsa-sha1",
                             Method => "relaxed",
                             Headers => $dkim->headers,
                             Domain => "example.org",
                             Selector => "mx1",
                     ));
             $dkim->add_signature(
                     new Mail::DKIM::DkSignature(
                             Algorithm => "rsa-sha1",
                             Method => "nofws",
                             Headers => $dkim->headers,
                             Domain => "example.org",
                             Selector => "mx1",
                     ));
             return;
         };
       If no policy is specified, the default policy is used. The default
       policy signs every message using the domain, algorithm, method, and
       selector specified in the new() constructor.
