Host löschen	notempty Hosts can not be deleted as long as the company access is activated! Opens the dialog for deleting the host. The deletion must be confirmed. DNS resolution for a deleted host is not possible Deleted hosts are not included in the number of used hosts of an account Deleted hosts remain visible in the list on the website, but can no longer be edited. This procedure is necessary to prevent a deleted domain from being immediately re-registered by third parties and content being hosted there. The domain could still be accessed in its old context and thus display unwanted content. notempty Once a host has been deleted, it cannot be released again, even by the support team!		Delete this host
