* luks-auto-provisioning | boolean

  Enable automatic LUKS encryption management for attached block storage.
  When enabled, the charm will format the storage with LUKS using the key
  supplied via luks-key, create an ext4 filesystem, and manage mounting
  and fstab entries. Requires luks-key to be set. This process may
  overwrite existing data on the attached block device if it is not
  already LUKS-encrypted and using an ext4 filesystem.
* luks-key | secret

  Juju secret ID containing the LUKS encryption key for block storage.
  The secret must have a field named "key" whose value is used as the
  LUKS passphrase. Required when luks-auto-provisioning is true.
  Example: juju add-secret my-luks-key key=<passphrase>
* mailname | string

  The fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or hostname for this mail server.
  Used to identify outgoing mail and should match your server's hostname.
* postmaster-address | string

  Email address of the postmaster or mail system administrator.
  Used as the sender for system-generated messages and bounce notifications.
* primary-unit | string

  The primary unit in a replicated charm deployment (e.g., 'dovecot/0').
  Only the primary unit receives incoming mail; replicas are read-only.
* sync-schedule | string

  Default: daily

  Systemd OnCalendar expression for syncing mail from primary to secondary units.
  Format: systemd calendar syntax (e.g., "\*:0/30" for every 30 minutes,
  "hourly", "daily"). See systemd.time(7) for full syntax reference.
