doveadm-user - Perform a user lookup in Dovecot's userdbs
doveadm [-Dv] user [-a userdb_socket_path] [-f field] [-u] [-x auth_info] user ...
The user command is used to perform a user lookup - to show what information 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 database and you are using %variables, like %s or %l, in the user_query setting. Or when you have configured the userdb in a way like this:
userdb { driver = passwd-file args = /etc/%s.passwd }
Global doveadm(1) options:
Command specific options:
By default doveadm(1) will use the socket /run/dovecot/auth-userdb. The socket may be located in another directory, when the default base_dir setting was overridden in /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf.
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 : sdbox:~/sdbox plugins : sieve quota_rule: *:storage=150M userdb: john@example.com home : /srv/mail/8/70312/79832 uid : 79832 gid : 70312 mail : mdbox:~/mdbox
The next example shows a user lookup, using wildcards.
doveadm user *.?oe@example.net jane.doe@example.net judy.roe@example.net john.doe@example.net
