Delta Chat version latest 1.4
Hi, was searching a long time now and could not find: how can I delete an existing account? Maybe I am blind, but did not find.
Thanks for any hint!
Cheers
Hi there
there is no special DeltaChat Account. It’s the email adress you configured.
If you delete DC you deleted your “account”
You can delete all DC messages in your mail account.
That’s it

There is no special Delta Chat account on any server. Delta Chat is just an email client, so all you need to do if you don’t want to use Delta Chat anymore is to log out.
When you click on the avatar, you get to “account switcher” screen. There you can delete local accounts that are not currently active from your device if you have more than one account set up, effectively logging out of the email server. To delete the last account, simply delete the Delta Chat application.
Hi, came to this topic by search engine.
but there (now) are testrun.org accounts.
E.g. I have two nine.testrun.org accounts… because created a second one by accident, when I wanted to add my own imap mailaccount.
Can we delete “nine.testrun.org” accounts?
I dont see in the “account swither” a possibility to delete account/profiles, only to add profiles.
Thank you!
(DC v1.52.1)
If you long-press the profile item in the switcher dialog, a context menu appears with a “Delete” option.

That worked. 
For usability, this function probably is expected under profile/account settings. I was searching there.
