sq-autocrypt-encode-sender - Man Page

Name

sq-autocrypt-encode-sender — Encodes 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".
