I posted a thread some time ago, and one of the responses I received

How can I do this?
I am pretty sure that it is not possible to delete a posting or a thread.
Sorry Richard, but your cc seems to have gone to the wrong address.
Interestingly I can't see Simon's name on any earlier posting, but he
may have used another alias.
I agree that posts cannot be deleted as they are spread far and wide
across the world by now, and archived in several places.
I have no official position, but apologies to Simon if a response on the
list appeared to be rude. In general this list is fairly polite - at
least the volunteers who respond. We get a few irate posters, and I am
usually amazed by the restraint of the responses to these. I don't
thinks any of them are mine, so I can complement my fellow volunteers.
Sometimes it is a weakness of the written word that allows for the
reader to apply their own "tone" to it, so that a message may appear
rude when it was not so intended.
