Provisioning does not replace %USERID% in mail host
Expected behavior
%USERID% (and %EMAIL%) can be used in IMAP/SMTP host and will be replaced by the values for each user.
Actual behavior
the host in the preview and in the db table oc_mail_accounts is literally "%USERID%"

This is a serious bug... cmon.
Did you ever get the provisioning working with the %EMAIL% pattern? It seems broken to me:
And when I go to the Mail tab it just stays loading for a very long time and ends up in this:
My Dovecot says Nextcloud is trying to login with the placeholder lol
dovecot[9155]: imap-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 4 attempts in 35 secs): **user=<%EMAIL%>**, method=PLAIN, rip=10.10.125.7, lip=10.10.125.4, TLS, session=<AlQT2gv7JOcKCn0H>
It says that “* %USERID% and %EMAIL% will be replaced with the user’s UID and email” but apparently it doesn’t replace the %EMAIL% placeholder with the login email as we can see on the log.
Note: my users will login with 2 different domains using their full e-mail address. The IMAP and SMTP require login with the full e-mail as well.
This is a serious bug... cmon.

How come? They login to Nextcloud with their e-mail.
In my setup Nextcloud is configured to authenticate users against an IMAP server , unless I'm missing something there's no reason why the email would be missing...
Sounds like you are using the email as login name and should rather map %USERID% to the imap username.

Hm, I'll give it a try!
