MU VERIFY

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 gnupg(1) 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.
