# grep -r "[email protected]" /usr/local/psa/var/modules/sslit/registrations
/usr/local/psa/var/modules/sslit/registrations/4635f4dcd23bae2f1412673473a8fb4c18390b72.json "contact":["mailto:[email protected]"],"agreement":null,"authorizations":[],"certificates":[]}

/usr/local/psa/var/modules/sslit/ordersusing the domain name:# grep -r "example.com" /usr/local/psa/var/modules/sslit/orders
/usr/local/psa/var/modules/sslit/oders/73e9346c3fc065d13305183342f962c17b0bed5c.json
- Remove the json files found in steps 2 and 3;
# rm -f /usr/local/psa/var/modules/sslit/orders/73e9346c3fc065d13305183342f962c17b0bed5c.json /usr/local/psa/var/modules/sslit/registrations/4635f4dcd23bae2f1412673473a8fb4c18390b72.json
