Cannot remove E-mail in geary account list

  • 772

Actually I wanted to try geary so I added an E-mail to try it out. now I want to remove my E-mail from geary accounts list, but "-" button is off and I cannot remove it (also I searched about it but no luck!). On the other hand after so many tries I also removed ~/.local/share/geary/[E-mail] directory but it keep loading my E-mail account...

Now How can I totally remove my E-mail and then unistall it?

    How many accounts are there in total? If you are trying to remove the last one, you'll need to either add a second account, or manually remove the account by deleting ~/.config/geary/ACCOUNT_ID as well as ~/.local/share/geary/ACCOUNT_ID (replacing ACCOUNT_ID with the actual id of the account, of course), per Bug 714572.

    Update:

    If you have installed Geary from Flathub, those paths are a little bit different: ~/.var/app/org.gnome.Geary/config/geary/ACCOUNT_ID and ~/.var/app/org.gnome.Geary/data/geary/ACCOUNT_ID.
