Description

Issue (or reissue) a free Let's Encrypt certificate for a domain, optionally including the www and mail hostnames. Every requested hostname must already resolve to this server or Let's Encrypt refuses the whole request — run get_ssl_status to see the current certificate and diagnose symptom dns to confirm the domain points here first. This does not install a certificate you already hold and does not change nameservers. If it returns a DirectAdmin error such as "no domains pointing to this server", the domain's A record does not point here yet — fix DNS and retry.

Input

Name	Type	Description

`include_www`	boolean	Also cover `www.<domain>`. Only add it if `www` resolves to this server, or issuance fails.
`include_mail`	boolean	Also cover `mail.<domain>`. Only add it if `mail` resolves to this server, or issuance fails.
