DESCRIPTION

Mail::MIMEDefang::DKIM is a module with a set of DKIM related methods called from mimedefang-filter to operate with DKIM.

METHODS

• md_dkim_sign

  Returns a mail header and the DKIM signature for the message. The method accepts the following parameters:

  • $keyfile

    The path to the private DKIM key

  • $algorithm

    The algorithm to be used to sign the message, by default is 'rsa-sha1'

  • $method

    The method used to sign the message, by default is 'relaxed/simple'

  • $domain

    The domain to be used when signing the message, by default it's autodetected

  • $selector

    The selector to be used when signing the message, by default it's 'default'
