DOVEADM-USER(1)                     Dovecot                    DOVEADM-USER(1)

NAME
       doveadm-user - Perform a user lookup in Dovecot's userdbs

SYNOPSIS
       doveadm  [GLOBAL  OPTIONS] user [-a userdb_socket_path] [-f field] [-u]
       [-x auth_info] user...

DESCRIPTION
       The user command is used to perform a user lookup - to show what infor-
       mation  Dovecot  sees about the user (s), or if it exists at all in the
       configured userdb (s).

       The auth_info may be useful when the userdb is for example a SQL  data-
       base  and you are using %variables, like %{protocol} or %{local_ip}, in
       the userdb_sql_query setting. Or when you have configured the userdb in
       a way like this:

         userdb passwd-file {
           passwd_file_path = /etc/%{protocol}.passwd
         }

GLOBAL OPTIONS
       Global doveadm(1)

       -D

           Enables verbosity and debug messages.

       -O

           Do  not  read any config file, just use defaults. The dovecot_stor-
           age_version setting defaults to the  latest  version,  but  can  be
           overridden with

       -k

           Preserve  entire  environment for doveadm, not just import_environ-
           ment setting.

       -v

           Enables verbosity, including progress counter.

       -i instance-name

           If using multiple Dovecot instances, choose the config  file  based
           on this instance name.

           See instance_name setting for more information.

       -c config-file

           Read  configuration from the given config-file. By default it first
           reads config socket, and  then  falls  back  to  /etc/dovecot/dove-
           cot.conf. You can also point this to config socket of some instance
           running compatible version.

       -o setting=value

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

OPTIONS
       -a userdb_socket_path

           This option is used to specify an absolute path to  an  alternative
           UNIX domain socket.

           By default doveadm(1) will use the socket

       -f field

           When  this  option  and  the  name  of  a  userdb  field  is given,
           doveadm(1) will show only the value of the specified field.

       -u

           When this option is given, doveadm(1) will only  show  values  from
           the

       -x auth_info

           auth_info specifies additional conditions for the user command. The
           auth_info option string has to be given as name = value  pair.  For
           multiple conditions the -x option could be supplied multiple times.

           Possible names for the auth_info are:

           service

               The  service  for which the userdb lookup should be tested. The
               value may be the name of a service, commonly used with Dovecot.
               For example: imap, pop3 or smtp.

       session

           Session identifier.

       lip

           The local IP address (server) for the test.

       rip

           The remote IP address (client) for the test.

       lport

           The local port, e.g. 143

       rport

           The remote port, e.g. 24567

       real_lip

           The local IP to which the client connected on this host.

       real_rip

           The remote IP where client connected from to this host.

       real_lport

           The local port to which client connected to to this host.

       real_rport

           The remote port from where the client connected from to this host.

       forward_<field>

           Field to forward as %{forward:field} to auth process.

ARGUMENTS
       user

           Is  a  user's  login  name. Depending on the configuration, a login
           name may be for example jane or john@example.com. It's also  possi-
           ble to use '*' and '?' wildcards (e.g. -u \*@example.org).

EXAMPLE
       Perform a user lookup for the users jane and john@example.com:

         doveadm user jane john@example.com

         userdb: jane
           uid       : 8001
           gid       : 8001
           home      : /home/jane
           mail_path : ~/sdbox
           plugins   : sieve
           quota_storage_size: 150M

         userdb: john@example.com
           home      : /srv/mail/8/70312/79832
           uid       : 79832
           gid       : 70312
           mail_path : ~/mdbox

       User lookup, using wildcards:

         doveadm user \*.?oe@example.net

         jane.doe@example.net
         judy.roe@example.net
         john.doe@example.net
