DOVECONF(1)                                                       Dovecot                                                       DOVECONF(1)

NAME
       doveconf - Dovecot's configuration dumping utility

SYNOPSIS
       doveconf [-adnNSx] [-c config-file] [-f filter] [-m module]
       doveconf [-n] [-c config-file] section_name ...
       doveconf [-h] [-c config-file] [-f filter] setting_name ...

DESCRIPTION
       doveconf  reads  and  parses  Dovecot's configuration files and converts them into a simpler format used by the rest of Dovecot. All
       standalone programs, such as dovecot(1) and dovecot-lda(1), will first get their settings by executing doveconf.

       For system administrators, doveconf is mainly useful for dumping the configuration in easy human readable output.

OPTIONS
       -a     Show all settings with their currently configured values.

       -c config-file
              read configuration from the given config-file.  By default /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf will be used.

       -d     Show the setting's default value instead of the one currently configured.

       -f filter
              Show the matching configuration for the specified filter condition.  The filter option string has to be given  as  name=value
              pair.  For multiple filter conditions the -f option can be supplied multiple times.
              Possible names for the filter are:

              lname  The local hostname, e.g. mail.example.com.  This will only match hostnames which were configured like:
                     local_name mail.example.com { # special settings }

              local  The server's hostname or IP address.  This will also match hostnames which were configured like:
                     local imap.example.net { # special settings }

              protocol, service
                     The protocol, e.g. imap or pop3

              remote The client's hostname or IP address.

       -h     Hide the setting's name, show only the setting's value.

       -m module
              Show only settings for the given module.
              e.g.  imap, imap-login, lmtp, pop3 or pop3-login

       -n     Show only settings with non-default values.

       -N     Show settings with non-default values and explicitly set default values.

       -S     Dump settings in simplified machine parsable/readable format.

       -x     Expand   configuration   variables   (e.g.   $mail_plugins   ⇒   quota)   and  show  file  contents  (from  e.g.  ssl_cert  =
              </etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem).

       section_name
              Show only the current configuration of one or more specified sections.

       setting_name
              Show only the setting of one or more setting_name(s) with the currently configured value. You can show  a  setting  inside  a
              section using '/' as the section separator, e.g.  service/imap/executable.

EXAMPLE
       When  Dovecot  was  configured  to  use  different  settings for some networks/subnets it is possible to show which settings will be
       applied for a specific connection.

       doveconf -f local=10.0.0.110 -f remote=10.11.1.2 -f service=pop3 -n

       doveconf can be also used to convert v1.x configuration files into v2.x format.

       doveconf -n -c /oldpath/dovecot.conf > /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf.new

       This example shows how to ask doveconf for a global setting and a protocol specific setting.  The second command uses  also  the  -h
       option, in order to hide the setting's name.

       doveconf mail_plugins
       mail_plugins = quota
       doveconf -h -f protocol=imap mail_plugins
       quota imap_quota

       This example demonstrates how to dump a whole configuration section.

       doveconf dict
       dict {
         quota = pgsql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext
       }
       Or how to dump only the quota dict:

       doveconf dict/quota
       dict/quota = pgsql:/etc/dovecot/dovecot-dict-sql.conf.ext
