-D
Enables verbosity and debug messages.
-O
Do not read any config file, just use defaults. The dovecot_storage_version setting defaults to the latest version, but can be overridden with
-k
Preserve entire environment for doveadm, not just import_environment 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/dovecot.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 multiple settings, the -o option may be specified multiple times.
-f formatter
Specifies the formatter for formatting the output. Supported formatters are:
flow
prints each line with key=value pairs.
pager
prints each key: value pair on its own line and separates records with form feed character (^L).
tab
prints a table header followed by tab separated value lines.
table
prints a table header followed by adjusted value lines.
service (optional)
Filters the list according to the specified service or services. By default, all dovecot services are listed.
