## MAC-Based Recovery
**NOTE**: MAC-Based Recovery is [currently not supported by _Let's Encrypt_](https://github.com/letsencrypt/boulder/issues/433).
On this recovery method, the client proves to the server that it holds a secret value that was established when the initial account was registered.
_acme4j_ does currently not support MAC-based recovery.
