Encode a certificate into an Autocrypt header
Synopsis
sq autocrypt encode-sender [Options] FILE
Description
Encode a certificate into an Autocrypt header.
A certificate can be encoded and included in a header of an email message. This command encodes the certificate, adds the senders email address (which must match the one used in the `From` header), and the senders `prefer-encrypt` state (see the Autocrypt spec for more information).
The converse operation is `sq autocrypt decode`.
