.SH NAME
encode\-sender \- Encodes a certificate into an Autocrypt header
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBencode\-sender\fR [\fB\-o\fR|\fB\-\-output\fR] [\fB\-\-email\fR] [\fB\-\-prefer\-encrypt\fR] [\fB\-h\fR|\fB\-\-help\fR] [\fIFILE\fR] 
.SH DESCRIPTION
Encodes a certificate into an Autocrypt header
.PP
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).
.PP
The converse operation is "sq autocrypt decode".
