Is it possible to configure the mail accounts in the mail app using the command line.
I am busy to create my ideal Nextcloud configuration. Often I had to start again from scratch, so if I can define the account settings (POP/IMAP, SMTP, username, password, etc.) on an easy way…
Best regards,
Guido
You could export oc_mail_accounts table from your database and import it later when you start from scratch. 
But this is something that you MUST avoid on production! Because you never know which other tables in database also holds information tied to entries in oc_mail_accounts table. If not at this moment then maybe later with some future nextcloud version or just upgraded mail app version.
Thanks @mrizvic.
I am not familiar with database tables and I am “afraid” for the situation you described in your caution. That’s why I want to know how to configure my mailaccount using the command line (sudo -u www-data php /var/www/nextcloud/occ mail:… ??)
Yes, try occ mail:account:create --help and follow the instructions
this app is obsolete. Mail can now persist provisioned accounts.
