=head1 NAME email-extract-openpgp-certs - extract OpenPGP certificates from an e-mail =head1 SYNOPSIS B | B B<--import> =head1 DESCRIPTION B extracts all the things it can find that look like they might be OpenPGP certificates in an e-mail, and produces them on standard output. It currently knows about how to find OpenPGP certificates as attachments of MIME type application/pgp-keys, and Autocrypt: style headers. =head1 OPTIONS None. =head1 EXAMPLE =over 4 $ notmuch show --format-raw id:b7e48905-842f@example.net >test.eml $ email-extract-openpgp-certs currently does not try to decrypt encrypted e-mails, so it cannot find certificates that are inside the message's cryptographic envelope. B does not attempt to validate the certificates it finds in any way. It does not ensure that they are valid OpenPGP certificates, or even that they are of a sane size. It does not try to establish any relationship between the extracted certificates and the messages in which they are sent. For example, it does not check the Autocrypt addr= attribute against the message's From: header. Importing certificates extracted from an arbitrary e-mail in this way into a curated keyring is not a good idea. Better to extract into an ephemeral location, inspect, filter, and then selectively import. =head1 SEE ALSO gpg(1), https://autocrypt.org, https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4880, https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3156 =head1 AUTHOR B and this manpage were written by Daniel Kahn Gillmor, with guidance and advice from many others.
