# Mail crypt

Mails are stored compressed (lz4) and encrypted. The key pair can be found in crypt-vol-1.

If you want to decode/encode existing maildir files, you can use the following script at your own risk:

Enter Dovecot by running `docker-compose exec dovecot-mailcow /bin/bash` in the mailcow-dockerized location.

    # Decrypt /var/vmail
    find /var/vmail/ -type f -regextype egrep -regex '.*S=.*W=.*' | while read -r file; do
    if [[ $(head -c7 "$file") == "CRYPTED" ]]; then
    doveadm fs get compress lz4:0:crypt:private_key_path=/mail_crypt/ecprivkey.pem:public_key_path=/mail_crypt/ecpubkey.pem:posix:prefix=/ \
      "$file" > "/tmp/$(basename "$file")"
      if [[ -s "/tmp/$(basename "$file")" ]]; then
        chmod 600 "/tmp/$(basename "$file")"
        chown 5000:5000 "/tmp/$(basename "$file")"
        mv "/tmp/$(basename "$file")" "$file"
      else
        rm "/tmp/$(basename "$file")"
      fi
    fi
    done

    # Encrypt /var/vmail
    find /var/vmail/ -type f -regextype egrep -regex '.*S=.*W=.*' | while read -r file; do
    if [[ $(head -c7 "$file") != "CRYPTED" ]]; then
    doveadm fs put crypt private_key_path=/mail_crypt/ecprivkey.pem:public_key_path=/mail_crypt/ecpubkey.pem:posix:prefix=/ \
      "$file" "$file"
      chmod 600 "$file"
      chown 5000:5000 "$file"
    fi
    done
