Account deletion

Hi Nathen,

i do like chef and i do appropriate all the things you do for it ecosystem.

But im not feeling ok within a system in which im not able to delete myself.

Your workaround doesn't seem to work, because to change me email i need to put in a valid one to accept the email change and complete the process, till then it seems that my email stays in your system.

greets,
Sebastian

Continuing the discussion from Welcome to Discourse!:

Unfortunately due to the nature of a mailing list, you can’t delete yourself once you’ve sent something to the list since those messages are a matter of public record at that point. You can unsubscribe yourself from the list by disabling email notifications, and if you were previously unsubscribed I apologize for the forced resub, that will be corrected shortly.

It’s a bit of a hack, but using a mailinator.com address works for changing your email and trashing your account.

I think the mailinator.com address itself is blocked, but they have plenty of domains that redirect in there. I used the streetwisemail.com domain.
