NAME

       ipsec_mailkey - mail DNS records for Opportunistic Encryption

SYNOPSIS

       ipsec --me my@address.tld [--reverse 1.2.3.4 aaa]
             [--forward hostname.domain.tld]

DESCRIPTION

       Mailkey is a meta-program. It generates a script which will attempt to
       mail the TXT records required to enable Opportunistic Encryption (OE).

       An e-mail address for the domain’s DNS administrator is derived from
       SOA records. The mail body and destination address are freely editable
       in the script.

       If no administrator can be located, the output file will not be
       executable.

       The --me option sets the Reply-to: address of the mail to be sent.

       The --forward hostname sets the domain name to be used for
       initiator-only OE.

       The --reverse ip-address sets the ip address to be used for full
       Opportunistic Encryption.

EXAMPLES

       ipsec mailkey --me paul@xelerance.com --forward bofh.xelerance.com
           creates the i-OE record for use on bofh.xelerance.com.

       ipsec mailkey --me paul@xelerance.com --reverse 193.110.157.17
           creates full-OE record for use on bofh.xelerance.com’s static IP
           address.
