How can i fix this?

did you run bench update --patch?

Yes i did

Try executing following in the console (bench console):

frappe.reload_doc("email", "doctype", "email_account", force=True)
frappe.db.commit()

And then try again after clearing cache (bench clear-cache) and rebooting bench (bench restart).

I executed and got this:

and then i ran a quick setup on my test VPS instance and found this in the email settings page:

I checked that box and my email configuration was saved successfully.
I checked the problem instance and found that this option does not exist:

My guess is this is where the issue is?

I’ve update my reply:

I’ve tried this and it gives me the syntax error: unexpected token “email”

You need to run in in bench console. Please read carefully.

sorry i missed that part. Ran it in bench console and issue resolved. Thanks a lot.

This worked for me as well. My issue manifested after I switched from V11 dev to V11 master. Every 4 minutes I would have a frappe.email.queue.flush error.

My problem was solved with this.
Thanks a lot.
