Package: dkim-filter
Version: 2.6.0.dfsg-1+lenny1
Severity: normal

The default /etc/dkim-filter.conf contains the following comment:

   # If enabled, will check for required headers when processing messages.
   # At a minimum, that means From: and Date: will be required. Messages not
   # containing the required headers will not be signed or verified, but will
   # be passed through
   #RequiredHeaders  yes

However, none of the documentation for any recent dkim-filter version, 
including the Debian package, 
seem to have quite the same option. There are OmitHeaders, SignHeaders and 
StrictTestMode but they don't 
behave in quite this way, and while it seems that older releases had this 
option, the only example I 
found (in 0.7.0) describes it as:

   Checks all messages for compliance with RFC2822 header count
   requirements. Non-compliant messages are rejected.

Which, even still, is totally different behavior. So I'm not sure where the 
author of this file is 
getting their information - either way it's confusing to someone using the file 
as a guide to figuring 
out how the program works. Thanks. :)
