Dovecot version: 2.2.22 (fe789d2)
I generated an EC key from the page https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Plugins/. For reference here's my /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-mail-crypt.conf file:
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_crypt
plugin { # mail_crypt_global_private_key =
I saw in a previous message on this mailing list that messages can be encrypted without the private key, so it's stored elsewhere. :-)
After restarting dovecot and sending myself a message I found that the message was still unencrypted. Nothing in /var/log/dovecot/*.log files or syslog indicated any problem loading the plugin (I even made some mistakes with the filename beforehand, and errors indicated it was trying to find the plugin).
In case in matters dovecot was installed as part of the automated iredmail
install (https://iredmail.org). I didn't modify the dovecot.conf file after
installation (except for thinking I needed to add mail_crypt
to plugins
,
then figuring I didn't).
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
