# Incoming email Rake tasks **(FREE SELF)**
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/108279) in GitLab 15.9.
The following are Incoming email-related Rake tasks.
## Secrets
GitLab can use [Incoming email](../incoming_email.md) secrets read from an encrypted file instead of storing them in plaintext in the file system. The following Rake tasks are provided for updating the contents of the encrypted file.
### Show secret
Show the contents of the current Incoming email secrets.
::Tabs
:::TabTitle Linux package (Omnibus)
```shell
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:show
```
:::TabTitle Helm chart (Kubernetes)
Use a Kubernetes secret to store the incoming email password. For more information,
read about [Helm IMAP secrets](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/installation/secrets.html#imap-password-for-incoming-emails).
:::TabTitle Docker
```shell
sudo docker exec -t <container name> gitlab:incoming_email:secret:show
```
:::TabTitle Self-compiled (source)
```shell
bundle exec rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:show RAILS_ENV=production
```
::EndTabs
#### Example output
```plaintext
password: 'examplepassword'
user: 'incoming-email@mail.example.com'
```
### Edit secret
Opens the secret contents in your editor, and writes the resulting content to the encrypted secret file when you exit.
::Tabs
:::TabTitle Linux package (Omnibus)
```shell
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:edit EDITOR=vim
```
:::TabTitle Helm chart (Kubernetes)
Use a Kubernetes secret to store the incoming email password. For more information,
read about [Helm IMAP secrets](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/installation/secrets.html#imap-password-for-incoming-emails).
:::TabTitle Docker
```shell
sudo docker exec -t <container name> gitlab:incoming_email:secret:edit EDITOR=editor
```
:::TabTitle Self-compiled (source)
```shell
bundle exec rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:edit RAILS_ENV=production EDITOR=vim
```
::EndTabs
### Write raw secret
Write new secret content by providing it on `STDIN`.
::Tabs
:::TabTitle Linux package (Omnibus)
```shell
echo -e "password: 'examplepassword'" | sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:write
```
:::TabTitle Helm chart (Kubernetes)
Use a Kubernetes secret to store the incoming email password. For more information,
read about [Helm IMAP secrets](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/installation/secrets.html#imap-password-for-incoming-emails).
:::TabTitle Docker
```shell
sudo docker exec -t <container name> /bin/bash
echo -e "password: 'examplepassword'" | gitlab-rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:write
```
:::TabTitle Self-compiled (source)
```shell
echo -e "password: 'examplepassword'" | bundle exec rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:write RAILS_ENV=production
```
::EndTabs
### Secrets examples
**Editor example**
The write task can be used in cases where the edit command does not work with your editor:
```shell
# Write the existing secret to a plaintext file
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:show > incoming_email.yaml
# Edit the incoming_email file in your editor
...
# Re-encrypt the file
cat incoming_email.yaml | sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:write
# Remove the plaintext file
rm incoming_email.yaml
```
**KMS integration example**
It can also be used as a receiving application for content encrypted with a KMS:
```shell
gcloud kms decrypt --key my-key --keyring my-test-kms --plaintext-file=- --ciphertext-file=my-file --location=us-west1 | sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:write
```
**Google Cloud secret integration example**
It can also be used as a receiving application for secrets out of Google Cloud:
```shell
gcloud secrets versions access latest --secret="my-test-secret" > $1 | sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:incoming_email:secret:write
```
