### Disable alias creation

By default, users can create new mail aliases. Administrators can prevent this globally while still allowing users to view and delete their existing aliases.

```bash
# Disable alias creation for all users
occ config:app:set mail allow_new_mail_aliases --value=no

# Re-enable alias creation (default)
occ config:app:set mail allow_new_mail_aliases --value=yes
```

When disabled, the "Add alias" button is hidden in the user interface and API requests to create new aliases are rejected. Existing aliases remain visible and can be deleted.

The setting can also be toggled from the Mail section of the Nextcloud admin settings page.

## Google OAuth

This app can allow users to connect their Google accounts with OAuth. This makes it possible to use accounts without 2FA or app password.

Spanish translation entry for "Allow aliases" is still in English (value is identical to the source string). Please localize it here as well to keep es.js consistent with es.json.

Spanish translation entry for "Allow aliases" is still in English (value is identical to the source string). If this key is meant to be localized, please provide a Spanish translation here (and in the corresponding l10n/es.js) so the admin setting title isn’t shown in English for Spanish users.
