I don't know how or what, but somehow I have 2 accounts now with the same name. See meegja accounts. When I log in here I get the new account, so I can not get into the old account with my worked WU's from S@H classic. Somehow this is now conflicting with the stats for the group (Seti@Netherlands) where I am member in. So, how to delete the empty acount so my stats from S@H classic will be used? Or how to delete both so I can start clear again?

Once an account has been created, it cannot be deleted, nor can it be merged with another account. If you joined S@H classic before May 14th 2004, you can activate an account that contains your S@H information. Since you have created a new account, you must change the email address of the new account to something other than the email account that S@H classic had on May 14th. Then you activate the account, rather than creating a new account. When you do this, you must be able to receive emails on the email address, and the SPAM filter probably needs to be turned off.
