Name

       doveadm-flags - add, remove or replace messages' flags

Options

       Global doveadm(1) options:

       -D     Enables verbosity and debug messages.

       -osetting=value
              Overrides  the  configuration  setting from /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and from the userdb with the
              given value.  In order to override multiple settings, the -o  option  may  be  specified  multiple
              times.

       -v     Enables verbosity, including progress counter.

       Command specific options:

       -A     If  the  -A  option is present, the command will be performed for all users.  Using this option in
              combination with system users from userdb{driver=passwd}  is  not  recommended,  because  it
              contains also users with a lower UID than the one configured with the first_valid_uid setting.

              When   the   SQL   userdb   module   is   used   make  sure  that  the  iterate_query  setting  in
              /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext matches your  database  layout.   When  using  the  LDAP  userdb
              module,  make  sure  that  the  iterate_attrs and iterate_filter settings in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext match your LDAP schema.  Otherwise doveadm(1) will be unable  to  iterate  over  all
              users.

       -Ffile
              Execute  the command for all the users in the file.  This is similar to the -A option, but instead
              of getting the list of users from the userdb, they  are  read  from  the  given  file.   The  file
              contains one username per line.

       -Ssocket_path
              The  option's argument is either an absolute path to a local UNIX domain socket, or a hostname and
              port (hostname:port), in order to connect a remote host via a TCP socket.

              This allows an administrator to execute doveadm(1) mail commands through the given socket.

       -uuser/mask
              Run the command only for the given user.  It's also possible to use '*' and '?' wildcards (e.g. -u
              *@example.org).
              When neither the -A option, nor the -Ffile option, nor the -uuser  was  specified,  the  command
              will be executed with the environment of the currently logged in user.
