Hi Qing, Do you really want a web interface for solely letting users delete their account? Why should they do so? Or are you looking for a function to integrate into an existing web environment? I want users to delete their own account if they are not going to use the service any more.

Now that's actually an idea I hadnt thought of. You could change the last auth field for the user to some value like 12 months ago in the databasr and then cron the vdeloldusers to delet anyone older than that value. This wouldn't require any special permissions/perl scripts, just a crontab
