remove emails account

I use M2 and IRC, for my flash disk I want to remove email accounts from /mail folder. I tried by deleting everything except accounts.ini. But it seems I deleted too much. Is there a way, how to do it please?
Thanks a lot

Try disabling this: Show Email Client and restart Opera.

Thanks, but I really want to remove the email-related files, not just hide M2. May be you got wrong my question.

If you remove everything from the mail folder (with Opera closed) and then recreate your IRC account it should be fine.

sgunhouse, sure, i wanted to avoid the recreation of the IRC-accounts. I mean, it should be possible, by editing, when you do it in a correct way. thank you.

Just delete all mail accounts from the account dialog in Opera. No need to mess around with the file system manually.

prd, imagine my mails are 200MB or more, I have to remove the files, not the account entries.

I will wait for a real answer.

Pelasa, prd, stop spamming my questions, right? Now everybody sees there are answers and nobody cares.

Why don't you just delete the "store" folder?

I don't know where are which data stored. Deleting the store would not remove the the mail accounts.This is the only problem. I want to know the "structure" of this /mail folder, what is in omailbase.dat 2.5MB of binary data?
I want a clean, safe way how to do it.

I have three chat account, with different passwords, and 10 chanels ... whats why I meant it woul be easier to delte the mails accounts.

Thanks for anwer.
