.TH SQ-AUTOCRYPT-ENCODE-SENDER "1" "JANUARY 2021" "0.24.0 (SEQUOIA-OPENPGP 1.0.0)" "USER COMMANDS" 5
.SH NAME
sq\-autocrypt\-encode\-sender \- Encodes a certificate into an Autocrypt header

A certificate can be encoded and included in a header of an email
message.  This command encodes the certificate, adds the senders email
address (which must match the one used in the "From" header), and the
senders "prefer\-encrypt" state (see the Autocrypt spec for more
information).

The converse operation is "sq autocrypt decode".
