NAME
       Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey - a private key loaded in memory for DKIM signing

SYNOPSIS
	my $key1 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(
		      File => "/path/to/private.key");

	my $key2 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(
		      Data => $base64);

	# use the loaded key in a DKIM signing object
	my $dkim = Mail::DKIM::Signer->new(
		      Key => $key2,
		    );

CONSTRUCTOR
   load() - loads a private key into memory
	my $key1 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(
		      File => "/path/to/private.key");

       Loads the Base64-encoded key from the specified file.

	 my $key2 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(Data => $base64);

       Loads the Base64-encoded key from a string already in memory.

	 my $key3 = Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey->load(Cork => $openssl_object);

       Creates a Mail::DKIM::PrivateKey wrapper object for the given OpenSSL key object. The key object should be of type Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA.

METHODS
   cork() - access the underlying OpenSSL key object
	 $openssl_object = $key->cork;

       The returned object is of type Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA.

   sign_digest()
       Cryptographically sign the given message digest.

	 $key->sign_digest("SHA-1", sha1("my message text"));

       The first parameter is the name of the digest: one of "SHA-1", "SHA-256".

       The second parameter is the message digest as a binary string.

       The result should be the signed digest as a binary string.
