Bug Description

Upon creation dknewkey creates key files with permissions 0600 for rsa type keys, but with 0644 permission for ed25519 keys. I believe it should be 0600 in all cases.

dknewkey is actually part of dkimpy, not the milter package. Reassigning.

Thanks. The difference is that for RSA, openssl is writing the file and dknewkey is doing it itself for ed25519. I agree. This should be easy enough to fix.

2019-12-31 Version 1.0.2
    - dknewkey: On posix operating systems set file permissions to 600 for
      ed25519 private key files (as is already done for RSA) (LP: #1857827)
    - Update documentation URL in README.md
    - Set minimum dnspython version to 1.16 because previous versions can not
      support the timeout parameter (LP: #1856546)
