NAME

ipsec mailkey - mail DNS records for Opportunistic Encryption  

SYNOPSIS

ipsec mailkey --me my@address.tld [ --reverse 1.2.3.4 ] [ --forward hostname.domain.tld ]  

DESCRIPTION

mailkey is a meta-program. It generates a script which will attempt to mail the TXT records required to enable Opportunistic Encryption (OE).

An e-mail address for the domain's DNS administrator is derived from SOA records. The mail body and destination address are freely editable in the script.

If no administrator can be located, the output file will not be executable.

--me my@address.tld
set the Reply-To: address of the mail to be sent.
--forward hostname.domain.tld
the domain name to be used for initator-only OE.
--reverse 1.2.3.4
the IP address to be used for full Opportunistic Encryption.

Only one of --forward or --reverse may be specified.
