Hello JW,
Thank you very much. :-)
This is the first time that somebody has requested that an item be removed
from the archives. I am not certian, how it can be done or if it can be
done, since mailman / pipermail stores the archives deep inside a structure /
format that I am not famaliar with. I will try to honor Peter's request,
but it will take sometime and probably considerable effort.
Best Regards,
--George
