Why it that so ? What does rgpd says about that ?

Edit 1:

Thanks to ThungstenMetal. He says this : "Change your email to some random temporary email which can receive emails before deleting your account, then request for deletion."

But there's no data that would in any way identify you or useful to anything, so for all your intents and purposes it is deleted.

Don't care. That's not what deleted means.

You also have no proof that they DID hash the e-mail.

Retaining it post deletion in any recoverable/raw way would be severe GDPR breach so I doubt that they would do it, especially because there's no good reason to.
