Re: Account deletion request

Hi Adrian,

I've added a secondary email address, but I still can't change the primary email address. It says 'You cannot change the primary email of this account since it is connected to an external authentication system'.

When I visit the https://www.postgresql.org/account/changepwd page, it gives the following error: 'This account cannot change password as it's connected to a third party login site'.

Using the password reset form (https://www.postgresql.org/account/reset/) with the primary address yield the same error as the 'changepwd' page. And when I enter the verified secondary email address, the password reset email doesn't arrive.
