.cindex DKIM "selecting signature algorithms"
This option gives a list of hash types which are acceptable in signatures,
and an order of processing.
Signatures with algorithms not in the list will be ignored.
-Note that the presence of sha1 violates RFC 8301.
-Signatures using the rsa-sha1 are however (as of writing) still common.
-The default inclusion of sha1 may be dropped in a future release.
