NAME

mu-verify - verify message signatures and display information about them

SYNOPSIS

mu [​_COMMON-OPTIONS_​] verify [​_OPTIONS_​] [​_FILE_…]

DESCRIPTION

mu verify is the mu command for verifying message signatures (such as PGP/GPG signatures) and displaying information about them. The sub-command works on message files, and does not require the message to be indexed in the database.

If no message file is provided, the command expects the message on standard-input.

VERIFY OPTIONS

-r, –auto-retrieve

Attempt to find keys online (see the auto-key-retrieve option in the documentation).

–decrypt

Attempt to decrypt the message.

EXAMPLES

To display aggregated (one-line) information about the verification status in a message:

$ mu verify msgfile

To display information about all the signatures:

$ mu verify --verbose msgfile

If you only want to use the exit code, you can use:

$ mu verify --quiet msgfile

which does not give any output unless there is an error.
