That's possible, but you should send your request directly to the responsible person, instead of assuming or hoping they are "reading along" on a different medium. > It's possible to do what I are asking, in other words, erase all messages > that I should not have posted in FreeBSD Forums that are written in FreeB= SD > Forums? As others have replied more or less politely, what you're asking for _might_ be possible, but it is futile. Let's assume a mailing list administrator or a forum moderator actually deletes all your posts. What about their copies in mailing list archives and web caches that are not under the control of said administrators? What about messages that users of the lists or the forum have saved locally? You have no way to delete them. Nobody has. And you can't even get evidence about location and responsibility for every _copy_ of your messages, wherever they may reside... Maybe it sounds harsh, but I don't mean to be insulting: What has been posted cannot be unposted. DEAL WITH IT. Also keep in mind that the Internet never forgets (except the really interesting and important stuff maybe). :-) --=20 Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
