> Sure, this can be done in the rails console within the container. rails c # restrict to secondary emails, just in case you try to delete the wrong email UserEmail.where(email: "foo@example.com", primary: false).destroy\_all # probably not needed, but better safe than sorry EmailToken.where(email: "foo@example.com").destroy\_all
