First a couple of nits and then an issue.
There are some lines in draft-ietf-dkim-base-00.txt that need to be
indented differently:
824c824
< <TAB> Z <SP><SP><CRLF>
---
<TAB> Z <SP><SP><CRLF>
2832c2832
< -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
---
-----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
2848c2848
< -----END PUBLIC KEY-----
---
-----END PUBLIC KEY-----
Now for the issue: I was trying to validate the sample message shown in
the draft. I think the example should be as accurate as we can make it,
and hence should verify properly.
I'm assuming that it was signed with the public/private key pair shown
in the draft. But I can't get it to verify. Is my assumption correct?
Should it be able to verify with that public/private key pair? If not,
can we get the correct public/private key pair into the draft instead of
what's there?
Can the example be rewritten to explicitly indicate which characters in
the indents are spaces and tabs? Given that it's a "c=simple;"
signature, the exact spaces and tabs are very important. For example, is
Received: from dsl-10.2.3.4.network.example.com [10.2.3.4]

supposed to be:
Received: from dsl-10.2.3.4.network.example.com [10.2.3.4]
<TAB>by submitserver.example.com with SUBMISSION;
<TAB>Fri, 11 Jul 2003 21:01:54 -0700 (PDT)
or

<TAB><SP>Fri, 11 Jul 2003 21:01:54 -0700 (PDT)

or what?
