    // or during the sending process.  Therefore, the MIME of the
    // email is assembled, the DKIM signature is added, and then
    // SendMimeBd is called to send the email.

    // First get the MIME of the email.  Calling RenderToMimeBd 
    // causes the email to be signed and/or encrypted if those options
    // have been selected.  The MIME returned by RenderToMimeBd
    // is the exact MIME that would've been sent if SendEmail was
    // called.  We'll add a DKIM signature header to this MIME and then send...

    // To create a DKIM signature,
    // you'll need to provide the following:
    // (1) An RSA private key in any common file format.
    // (2) The domain name (typically the same domain
    // as the sender of an email).
    // (3) A selector for the domain name -- an arbitrary string
    // to identify the matching public key in DNS.

    // To allow an email recipient to verify the DKIM signature via an
    // external email client supporting DKIM or using other software,
    // you will need to create a DNS record with the selector
    // and matching public key.  This example does not provide
    // information about DKIM DNS record creation.  
    // (Chilkat does not provide an API for creating DNS records.  
    // Creating the DKIM DNS record is something you would do
    // manually.)

    // You'll need to provide your own values here..

    // an empty password string argument, but it is ignored.

    // appear in the MIME header of the email (in the "To" and "CC" header fields).

    // that the email was also sent to the BCC address.  (BCC means "blind carbon copy")
