-=== Special deletion information ===
-You can choose, if the registry should delete the domain immediately or at the end of its term with the following extension:
-<br>
-<pre>
-X-AT-SCHEDULEDATE = expiration | now
-</pre>
-Optional:
-<br>
-Indicates, if the registry should delete the domain at the end of its term ("expiration") or immediately ("now"). If the parameter is not given the domain will be deleted at the end of its term.
-<br><br>
-If you do not have the consent of the registrant you should set the domain renewal mode to AUTOEXPIRE. This will cause a so-called '''BILLWITHDRAW''' at the registry at the end of the term of the domain. A BILLWITHDRAW means that the registrant will become the new billing contact of the domain and will be charged directly from the registry for the renewal of his domain.
-<br>
-As the .AT registry handles domain-deletions very strict, we highly recommend to save a written confirmation of your client for domain-transactions.
-'''In case that you have to delete domains immediately, e.g. in case of fraud, the only way is to delete the domain with the API [[API:DeleteDomain | DeleteDomain]] command and setting the parameter X-AT-SCHEDULEDATE to "now".'''
-<br><br>
-{{Warnbox|Please note that you're only allowed to delete .AT domains directly if you have the signed authorization of the registrant. The cancellation-form is available for download here: http://www.nic.at/service/faxbestaetigungen/}}
-=== Restore ===
-'''Restore are possible''' if the domain was deleted explicitly with the DeleteDomain command or set to '''"AUTODELETE"'''.
-'''Restores are not possible''' if the domain was set to '''"AUTOEXPIRE"''' or was '''pushed''' back to the registry with the PushDomain command. In order to get your domain back, please request a transfer via API or Controlpanel. Please note that as soon as you have requested a transfer, NIC.AT will send out a confirmation email to the domain-owner to confirm the transfer.
