A transcript of headers and their values which are included in the signature
(copied from the 'z=' tag of the signature).
+.new
+Note that RFC6376 requires that verification fail if the From: header is
+not included in the signature. Exim does not enforce this; sites wishing
+strict enforcement should code the check explicitly.

.vitem &%$dkim_bodylength%&
The number of signed body bytes. If zero ("0"), the body is unsigned. If no
limit was set by the signer, "9999999999999" is returned. This makes sure
that this variable always expands to an integer value.
+
.vitem &%$dkim_created%&
UNIX timestamp reflecting the date and time when the signature was created.
When this was not specified by the signer, "0" is returned.
+
.vitem &%$dkim_expires%&
UNIX timestamp reflecting the date and time when the signer wants the
signature to be treated as "expired". When this was not specified by the
signer, "9999999999999" is returned. This makes it possible to do useful
integer size comparisons against this value.
+
.vitem &%$dkim_headernames%&
A colon-separated list of names of headers included in the signature.
+
.vitem &%$dkim_key_testing%&
"1" if the key record has the "testing" flag set, "0" if not.
+
.vitem &%$dkim_key_nosubdomains%&
"1" if the key record forbids subdomaining, "0" otherwise.
+
.vitem &%$dkim_key_srvtype%&
Service type (tag s=) from the key record. Defaults to "*" if not specified
in the key record.
+
.vitem &%$dkim_key_granularity%&
Key granularity (tag g=) from the key record. Defaults to "*" if not specified
in the key record.
+
.vitem &%$dkim_key_notes%&
Notes from the key record (tag n=).
+
.vitem &%$dkim_key_length%&
Number of bits in the key.
