NAME

sq autocrypt encode-sender - Encode a certificate into an Autocrypt header

SYNOPSIS

sq autocrypt encode-sender [OPTIONS] FILE

DESCRIPTION

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’.
