dkimverify(1)

✨ dkimverify β€” the manual page bestie πŸ’…

okay so real quick, the title is dkimverify and it lives in section 1 of the manual pages β€” like, the general commands girlies. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

dkimverify β€” a script for verifying DKIM on messages coming in on stdin. literally its whole thing. πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ VERSION πŸ¦‹

0.6.0 β€” yes bestie, we're on 0.6.0, write it down. ✨


πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

okay so here's the tea. dkimverify reads an RFC822 message straight off standard input, and then:

  • if the signature verifies successfully β†’ it exits with exit code 0 πŸŽ‰ slay, it's legit
  • otherwise β†’ it exits with exit code 1 πŸ’€ nope, that signature did not pass the vibe check

that's it. that's the whole flow. feed it a message, get a yes or a no, no cap. 🫢


πŸ’œ AUTHORS πŸ’œ

okay credit where credit is due, because these people ate:

  • This man-page was created by Scott Kitterman <scott@kitterman.com> and is licensed under the same terms as dkimpy. πŸŽ€

and that's the whole page babes 🌈 β€” this cutie dropped on 2017-01-23, so go verify some signatures and have the best day fr fr. πŸ’–βœ¨πŸ¦‹
