I've been reading over
http://dkim.org/specs/rfc4871-dkimbase.html#rfc.section.1
From what I understand, you verify using the domain in the "d" value in
the DKIM-Signature header. So I could send an email with my domain in
the envelope sender, with a valid DKIM signature under my own domain,
but then with "Paypal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" in the From header, and it
would validate fine. What is the point of DKIM again?
Can anyone explain this to me, before I go hunting for dkim specific
mailing lists...?
