           Summary: DKIM plugin overhaul - whitelisting and terminology
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: SVN Trunk (Latest Devel Version)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P5
         Component: Libraries
        AssignedTo: [email protected]

As promised on a mailing list:
  I would still like to clean a terminology mess (misinterpretation
  of what 'identity' is) in DKIM plugin (debug, comments, POD)
  and reduce its logging clutter. I think it should go to 3.2.4,
  working on it...

As it turned out, the whitelisting code needed reworking too
to match the concepts, which are now cleaner than few years ago
when DKIM was still mostly vaporware.

Sending lib/Mail/SpamAssassin/Plugin/DKIM.pm
  Committed revision 580453 (to trunk)

Cleaned concepts in a DKIM plugin, previous interpretation of
"identity" was incompatible with the current DKIM standard RFC 4871
and SSP, and was a mixture from DomainKeys and whitelist_from_rcvd.
Added substantial new documentation (POD), and updated comments
and debug output to use the same terminology. Reduced debug logging
clutter. Reworked whitelisting to match the new documentation
and expected use as per SSP draft. Tested whitelisting based on
originator signature as well as based on third-party signature.
Prepare grounds for messages with multiple signatures (although
Mail::DKIM does not support that yet, but is in the works).

Is there a chance of pushing it into 3.2.4? I don't think there
are any other differences in this module between HEAD and 3.2.3,
so it should be just copied across.
