Unofficial typed Rust client for AgentMail (agentmail.to), the email API for agents.

//! Verification of AgentMail webhook deliveries, which are signed with
//! [Svix](https://docs.svix.com/receiving/verifying-payloads/how-manual).
//!
//! Enable the `webhook-verify` feature to pull this in (it adds `ring` and
//! `base64`). The functions are pure and take no [`Client`](crate::Client): a
//! server handling deliveries verifies with just the endpoint's signing secret
//! and the `svix-*` headers.
//!
//! ```
//! # #[cfg(feature = "webhook-verify")] {
//! use agentmail::verify_webhook_signature;
//! // Your endpoint's signing secret (the `whsec_...` value from the webhook).
//! let secret = format!("whsec_{}", "MfKQ9r8GKYqrTwjUPD8ILPZIo2LaLaSw");
//! let ok = verify_webhook_signature(
//!     &secret,
//!     "msg_p5jXN8AQM9LWM0D4loKWxJek",
//!     "1614265330",
//!     "v1,g0hM9SsE+OTPJTGt/tmIKtSyZlE3uFJELVlNIOLJ1OE=",
//!     b"{\"test\": 2432232314}",
//! );
//! assert!(ok.is_ok());
//! # }
