I received a Bcc from Gerhardt, who removed one of my subscribers from 57 Mailing lists this afternoon, including one of mine. for multiple Spam messages. (It was of the no subject, only a URL in the body type.) I had already tried to have it removed from my list Archives, but received an error message. Should I continue to try, or will Staff do this without my interfering? Carl Hommel

Carl, I apologize for what is going to be the second time you have received the earlier reply below sent to you privately. I realized after sending it to you I so, and am now replying again on the list because the information might be of benefit to others. Sorry for the duplication. Carl, I cannot in any way speak for the Listmaster (Gerhard), but it is my understanding that if spam is reported properly to him or he otherwise becomes aware of it, that removing it from the list archives is also part of the process he typically follows as a matter of routine. As for the archive removal tool, I had the same problem with it a week or two ago and was told it had some sort of "kink" in it, and to follow up using the tool with a note to the Listmaster and he will manually remove it if there remains a need to do so. It probably wouldn't hurt if you checked the archives to see if the post(s) is still there, and notify Listmaster if you find it. Hope this helps. David E.
