Question: any way to opt-out a closed e-mail account address?
I asked to opt-out an e-mail address, but since I closed the e-mail account (it's already a year since) I find difficulty in confirming the verification e-mail. Any alternative thing I can do to try to block the e-mail address from showing in this site? Thanks!

Dear Mr. Troy, since you understand the problem, could you please take the time to review this topic?
A solution for this issue is necessary.
Thanks in advance. -

Same problem of Anon, 15/4/2020, here. Data could remain exposed, allowing malicious actors to use those again and again, worst part is that sometimes it's literally impossible to recover an old email address. Following GDPR in EU, only way to prove to be the legitimate owner it's providing evidences, e.g. screenshot, forms or ID, but I'm conscious this would raise a working overload for you. To compensate, I suggest this to be a paid feature. Please, let us know.

Troy you need to come up with a way that allows users to opt out of old deleted email accounts that aren’t recoverable no one wants there personal breached data public, hackers has been using this to break into accounts, and I’ve been a victim of it thats how i found this site in the first place

I thank you for your response! I tried to find answers to your questions but I was not able to, unfortunately for me. I think the best I can do in this case will be to just accept it. I thank you again for your attention!

I understand the problem, but how would you suggest ensuring you're not able to opt other people out? If someone can't access email sent to the address, how can it be proven they were once the legitimate owner?
