Because of a problem exporting v12 Azure SQL databases I had to copy my existing database, drop the old one copy the copy again to get the old database name again.

And now the new problem begins: Azure tries to create a backup for the old and non-existing database and sends me hundrets of error emails. As far as I can see there is no way to cancel the errant export through Azure web interface or power shell.

The error message sent by mail is:

Automated SQL Export failed for : at 13.03.2015 14:23:13. The temporary database copy was made, but this copy could not be exported to the .bacpac file.

There was a issue like that before but regarding to this Post it should be fixed.

The problem seems to be fixed by today. Now it's possible to deactivate the automated database export thru azure management portal again. You just need to create a database with the same name like the one the automated update was created for.

No official statement from Microsoft found so far.

The issue on Azure Management Portal is fixed last Friday. It should be working as expected.
