== Setting up an SMTP server ==
By default, Linode disables SMTP ports 587 etc. This requires a manual human-facing support ticket to remove. (Done by @Jonny on Nov 25 2022)
== Setting up an admin account from CLI w/ email confirmation ==
Note that you need to be logged in as the mastodon user for this to work.
<OPTIONAL> If you did not create that user account and don't know the password, then you should do the following:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
sudo su - mastodon
</syntaxhighlight>The following command will work if the username and email have been registered from the UI. Very useful if SMTP server hasn't been setup yet.<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
cd /home/mastodon/live
RAILS_ENV=production ./bin/tootctl accounts modify <username> --role Admin --email <email-address> --confirm
</syntaxhighlight>
