NAME
       Mail::DKIM - Signs/verifies Internet mail with DKIM/DomainKey
       signatures
SYNOPSIS
         # verify a message
         use Mail::DKIM::Verifier;
         # create a verifier object
         my $dkim = Mail::DKIM::Verifier->new();
         # read an email from stdin, pass it into the verifier
         while (<STDIN>)
         {
             # remove local line terminators
             chomp;
             s/\015$//;
             # use SMTP line terminators
             $dkim->PRINT("$_\015\012");
         }
         $dkim->CLOSE;
         # what is the result of the verify?
         my $result = $dkim->result;
DESCRIPTION
       This module implements the various components of the DKIM and
       DomainKeys message-signing and verifying standards for Internet mail.
       It currently tries to implement these specifications:
       RFC4871, for DKIM
       RFC4870, for DomainKeys
       The module uses an object-oriented interface. You use one of two
       different classes, depending on whether you are signing or verifying a
       message. To sign, use the Mail::DKIM::Signer class. To verify, use the
       Mail::DKIM::Verifier class. Simple, eh?

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