NAME
sq autocrypt - Communicate certificates using Autocrypt
SYNOPSIS
sq autocrypt
import [OPTIONS] FILE
sq autocrypt decode [OPTIONS] FILE
sq autocrypt encode-sender [OPTIONS]
FILE
DESCRIPTION
Communicate certificates using Autocrypt.
Autocrypt is a standard for mail user agents to provide convenient end-to-end encryption of emails. This subcommand provides a limited way to produce and consume headers that are used by Autocrypt to communicate certificates between clients.
See <https://autocrypt.org/>;.
SUBCOMMANDS
sq autocrypt
import
Import Autocrypt-encoded certificates.
Given a mail containing autocrypt headers (or an key-gossip headers), this command extracts and imports the certificates encoded within it.
sq autocrypt
decode
Read Autocrypt-encoded certificates.
Given an autocrypt header (or an key-gossip header), this command extracts the certificate encoded within it.
The converse operation is ’sq autocrypt encode-sender’.
sq autocrypt
encode-sender
Encode a certificate into an Autocrypt header.
A certificate can be encoded and included in a header of an email message. This command encodes the certificate, adds the senders email address (which must match the one used in the ’From’ header), and the senders ’prefer-encrypt’ state (see the Autocrypt spec for more information).
The converse operation is ’sq autocrypt decode’.
EXAMPLES
sq autocrypt
import
Imports all certificates from a mail
sq autocrypt import autocrypt.eml
sq autocrypt
decode
Extract all certificates from a mail
sq autocrypt decode autocrypt.eml
sq autocrypt
encode-sender
Encodes a certificate
sq autocrypt encode-sender juliet.pgp
Encodes a certificate with an explicit sender address
sq autocrypt encode-sender --email juliet [AT] example.org juliet.pgp
Encodes a certificate while indicating the willingness to encrypt
sq autocrypt encode-sender --prefer-encrypt mutual juliet.pgp
