NAME

mu verify− verify message signatures and display information about them

SYNOPSIS

mu verify [options] <msgfile>

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.

OPTIONS

−r, −−auto−retrieve

attempt to find keys online (see the auto-key-retrieve option in the gnupg(1) documentation).

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.

RETURN VALUE

mu verify returns 0 when all signatures could be verified to be good, and returns some non-zero error code when this is not the case.

When there are no signatures, returns 0 as well.

| code | meaning |
|------+--------------------------------|
| 0 | ok |
| 1 | some non-verified signature(s) |
