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.
       -f formatter
           Specifies  the  formatter for formatting the output. Supported for-
           matters 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.
       This command uses by default the output formatter flow (without the key
       = prefix).
OPTIONS
       -A
           If the -A option is present, the command will be performed for  all
           users.  Using  this  option  in  combination with system users from
           userdb { driver = passwd } is not recommended, because it  contains
           also  users  with  a  lower  UID  than  the one configured with the
           first_valid_uid setting.
           When  the  SQL  userdb  module  is  used,  make   sure   that   the
           userdb_sql_iterate_query setting setting matches your database lay-
           out.
           When using the LDAP userdb module, make sure that the userdb_fields
           setting  and userdb_ldap_iterate_fields setting settings match your
           LDAP schema. Otherwise doveadm(1) will be unable  to  iterate  over
           all users.
       -F file
           Execute  the command for all the users in the file. This is similar
           to the -A option, but instead of getting the list of users from the
           userdb,  they  are  read from the given file. The file contains one
           username per line.
       --no-userdb-lookup
           Do not perform userdb lookup. Use the USER environment variable  to
           specify the username.
       -S socket_path
           The  option's  argument  is either an absolute path to a local UNIX
           domain socket, or a hostname and port (hostname:port), in order  to
           connect a remote host via a TCP socket.
           This  allows  an  administrator to execute doveadm(1) mail commands
           through the given socket.
       -u user/mask
           Run the command only for the given user. It's also possible to  use
           '*' and '?' wildcards (e.g. -u *@example.org).
ARGUMENTS
       search_query
           Resets  attachment  indicator  for  messages  matching  this search
           query. See doveadm-search-query(7) for details.
EXAMPLE
       Rebuild user bob's attachment status:
         doveadm rebuild attachments -u bob ALL
         1
         2
         3
