## 5. Special case: Converting LE account data from certbot to acme.sh
If already using certbot, then there is the possiblity to convert its LE account data to acme.sh format.
See https://github.com/maddes-b/linux-stuff/tree/main/acme.sh .
If re-using the LE account created from certbot, then it is recommended **not** to specify `-m/--email` during installation.
