Tricia, discuss@@openoffice.org is the working address of a public mailing list which has always had public archives of every message, and explicitly declares it. the page http://www.openoffice.org/mail_list.html explicitly says: "All our lists are public. They are not private message centers. Messages posted to them are carried by, among others, Gmane and Google. They are public. Therefore, consider carefully what you say: thousands if not millions may read your words and they won't just read them today but also decades from now." and also: "If you're having problems with any of the lists, please contact the list owner rather than posting your problem to the whole list". (the latter advice is because almost everybody on this list is a volunteer who has no control at all on the software infrastructure) At this point, there is no way to remove those pages with your addresses from the Internet. Even if the managers of Ooo did what you ask, the pages are mirrored by many other independent websites, so changing pages on openoffice.org won't make any difference. Here is a proof, ie a copy of the message with your name and email address outside OpenOffice.org: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.openoffice.general You should have been more careful when you read the policy of some online forum or use it. If you're receiving too much spam, you should either stop using that address and be more careful with a new one from now on, or install some good anti-spam system. Best Regards, M.
