Hi team,
regarding:
https://www.mail-archive.com/dovecot@dovecot.org/msg77000.html
I have the very same problem.

N. B. Before posting I arbitrarily removed numbers from the output, maybe paranoid...
Environment:
openSuSE Linux server.
dovecot version 2.3.20
openssl version 1.1.1
ruby version 3.1.2p20
decrypt.rb version https://gist.github.com/cmouse/882f2e2a60c1e49b7d343f5a6a2721de
This is the way I generated the keys:
openssl ecparam -name prime256v1 -genkey | openssl pkey -out ecprivkey.pem openssl pkey -in ecprivkey.pem -pubout -out ecpubkey.pem
This is the 10-mailcrypt.conf:
mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_crypt
plugin { #fts_index_fs = crypt:set_prefix=fscrypt_index:posix:set_prefix=/tmp/fts mail_crypt_global_private_key = </etc/dovecot/mailcrypt/ecprivkey.pem mail_crypt_global_public_key = </etc/dovecot/mailcrypt/ecpubkey.pem mail_crypt_save_version = 2 }
Encryption of incoming (thanks to dovecot-lda), as well as outgoing mails works perfectly.
But for me it is more a feature than a bug, since now, even as root I am not able to decrypt users mails.
This serves plausible deniability.
But how can I make sure, that NOBODY ELSE can decrypt with this specific private key?
Is there ANY OTHER way to decrypt the mails besides the script?
Have a nice Monday, and THANKS for taking your time!

P. S. Did you notice, that as an argument (-k) the results are the same, both with private and public key?
P.P.S. If i give the "-w" argument and a file name, the file remains empty, tried even that without success.
P.P.P.S. If I call the script with ruby version 2 it bails out...
