Hi, welcome to the forum.

AFAIK, you can create a new admin account from the command line.

hi,

I've accidentally deleted the admin account. I'm not a techie. I've searched the wiki section but was unable to find a way to create a new admin username password for my zimbra. can someone help?

Here it is, run the commands as the Zimbra user. There's plenty of details in the forums as well.
