Revision history for Mail::DKIM2
0.10 2026-10-02
API cleanup ahead of a CPAN release. Incompatible changes are marked *.
- New top-level Mail::DKIM2 module documenting the conventions every
module follows; every module now carries the distribution $VERSION.
- Constructor options are CamelCase and validated: an unknown option
croaks. Verifier options (SkipTimestampCheck, AllowUnsignedMI,
MidProcess, HeadersOnly, PubkeyCallback, Resolver, IgnorePrefixes)
can be given to new() and are no longer silently discarded.
- load($input): one-shot PRINT+CLOSE taking a string, scalar ref,
filehandle or Email::MIME, normalising LF to CRLF. TIEHANDLE lets a
Signer or Verifier be tied to a filehandle.
- Verifier->signatures and ->top_signature for Authentication-Results
writers.
* Ignore prefixes are per instance: Common::ignore_header_prefixes is
gone; pass IgnorePrefixes to Verifier->new and to
MessageInstance->calculate/verify/chain_verifies instead.
should_skip takes the prefixes as a second argument.
* Key fetching moves to the Verifier: Signature->fetch_public_key is
replaced by Verifier->fetch_public_key($signature, $idx), driven by
the Resolver option. Only NXDOMAIN/NOERROR/NODATA are permanent; any
other resolver error is temperror. The pubkey callback receives the
verifier as a third argument.
* Signer no longer dies from inside PRINT on a chain it cannot
extend: result() is 'fail' and details() says why. result() is
undef (not '?') before CLOSE. details() and result_detail() added.
* Signature: mail_from(), rcpt_to() and flags() are get/set like the
other tag accessors; set_rcpt_to is removed.
* Mail::DKIM2::DSN methods take CamelCase named arguments (Message,
Signer, To, ReportingMTA, Status, Reason, PubkeyCallback,
ForwarderDomain, SkipAuthentication, SkipTimestampCheck) instead of
a hashref. Validate::report takes PubkeyCallback, DnsPath,
SkipTimestampCheck.
* Command-line tools: dkim2sign (was dkim2sign.pl) and the new
dkim2verify are installed; verify-sig.pl, calculate-dkim2.pl and
the *-mailversion tools are removed.
- POD rewritten for spec-06 (the previous text described
draft-clayton-08 tags); Net::DNS declared as a prerequisite.
- dkim2-milter and dkim2-split-lmtp are installed programs (were
bin/*.pl, run from the checkout). X-DKIM2-Info sw= says
dkim2-milter.
