How to reset Magento transactional emails ID?

Question

I have tried already to truncate core_email_template, with no success. Even though I have deleted my previous transactional emails, as soon as I create a new one, the ID increments from my previous template. I want it to start over from ID=1.

Thank you!

Afaik, some MySQL versions don't properly reset auto-increment values when using

TRUNCATE table_name;

Alternatively you can try to reset it directly:

ALTER TABLE `core_email_template` AUTO_INCREMENT = 1;
