NAME
doveadm-mailbox-cryptokey - Mail crypt plugin management
SYNOPSIS
doveadm -o plugin/mail_crypt_private_password=password [ -Dv ][ -f for-
matter ] mailbox cryptokey export|generate|list|password [ -u username
| -A ][ -S ][ -F file ] [ other options ]
DESCRIPTION
Generate new keypair for user or folder. The new keypair is marked as
active.
OPTIONS
options:
-A If the -A option is present, the command will be performed for
all users. Using this option in combination with system users
from userdb { driver = passwd } is not recommended, because it
contains also users with a lower UID than the one configured
with the first_valid_uid setting.
When the SQL userdb module is used make sure that the iter-
ate_query setting in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext matches
your database layout. When using the LDAP userdb module, make
sure that the iterate_attrs and iterate_filter settings in
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext match your LDAP schema. Oth-
erwise doveadm(1) will be unable to iterate over all users.
-F file
Execute the command for all the users in the file. This is sim-
ilar to the -A option, but instead of getting the list of users
from the userdb, they are read from the given file. The file
contains one username per line.
-S socket_path
The option's argument is either an absolute path to a local UNIX
domain socket, or a hostname and port (hostname:port), in order
to connect a remote host via a TCP socket.
This allows an administrator to execute doveadm(1) mail commands
through the given socket.
-u user/mask
Run the command only for the given user. It's also possible to
use '*' and '?' wildcards (e.g. -u *@example.org).
When neither the -A option, nor the -F file option, nor the
-u user was specified, the command will be executed with the
environment of the currently logged in user.
-o plugin/mail_crypt_private_password=password
Dovecot option, needed if you use password protected keys
SUBCOMMANDS
export [ -U ] | mailbox-mask
-U Operate on user keypair only
Exports user's or folder's keypair(s) in PEM format. If the keys are
password protected, -o is needed.

-U Operate on user keypair only
-R Re-encrypt all folder keys with current active user key
-f Force keypair creation, normally keypair is only created if none
found
Generates new keypair for user or folder. If you want to generate new
user key and use it to secure your folder keys, use generate -u user-
name -UR.
If you want to password-protect your key here, use -o.
list [ -U ] | mailbox-mask
-U Operate on user keypair only
