Hi,

When you delete a domain in modoboa, you are warned than only the domain will be deleted. It would be nice to have a checkbox to be able to delete all the identities associated with this domain at the same time.

Actually, when you delete a domain, all associated data is deleted (that's what the message says). One exception: if you did not activate the "Automatic account removal" option (Modoboa > Parameters > Administration), accounts won't be deleted.
Are you asking for an option to NOT delete associated data?

The automatic removal is what I want, but the help tooltip isn't real clear about what it does. I think an update in the doc should do the trick.

Besides, there is still a usecase when the checkbox will be useful. When you want to keep the accounts associated the domain when you delete it as the default behavior, but sometimes, you really want to delete everything.

What do you think ?

Indeed, it makes sense.
