Hello,

I created an account in Firefox with my old e-mail; nyayesh_abdollahi@fripost.org.

However, I have since deleted that e-mail and also forgotten the login password for that Firefox-account; therefore, I can't login to it albeit it exists.

I'm not sure how this works but I do believe the best way to resolve the matter is through the deletion of the aforementioned account.

Kindly, Nyayesh Abdollahi

Hi

For us to be able to delete a Firefox Account we need to be able to verify the owner of it by verifying the owner of the email address used. If you are unable to access the email address, we will be unable to delete the account.

Hello Paul, Thank you for your quick reply.

I reiterate that the e-mail-account is deleted so then that account will drift in the internet ether until the end times, or mayhaps prior to that if things change and we see an upheaval.

Thank you, brave soldier.

Kind regards, Nyayesh Abdollahi
