+.cindex "UDP communications"
This modifier sends a UDP packet, for purposes such as statistics
collection or behaviour monitoring. The parameters are expanded, and
the result of the expansion must be a colon-separated list consisting
whether or not each header is present in the message.
The default list is available for the expansion in the macro
"_DKIM_SIGN_HEADERS".
+
+If a name is repeated, multiple headers by that name (or the absence therof)
+will be signed. The textually later headers in the headers part of the
+message are signed first, if there are multiples.
+
+A name can be prefixed with either an '=' or a '+' character.
+If an '=' prefix is used, all headers that are present with this name
+will be signed.
+If a '+' prefix if used, all headers that are present with this name
+will be signed, and one signtature added for a missing header with the
+name will be appended.
