Hey all ,

Sold my old Powerbook a while back - and instead of wiping the drive i created a new admin account and deleted my main account.

problem has come to me - via the lappy being sold on via ebay of my e-mails are still in the laptop

i use dot mac

so the question is, can i remotely erase them and unauthorise (like itunes) my account ?

before i change all my .Mac passwords and such thought i might ask you lot:)
 
If you didn't access your mail with the new account, then they should have been deleted along with your old (main) account. So I think you should be OK.

If you did access your mail with the new account then I don't think there's much you can do outside of changing your password (which wouldn't stop access to any email stored on the machine).
