Hi,

For an unknown reason, when responding a question on the discuss mailing
list, another professional email got attached to my response. I cannot
understand how this has happened but I would appreciate if it was
possible to delete it. 

The email is dated from November 15 at 19:41.

Regards,
Christophe

It's not easy (and not strictly policy as per 
http://sourceware.org/lists.html#archive-archive ), but I did do it. 
However the horse has already bolted... there are other archivers out 
there such as nabble.com, mail-archive.com, spinics.net, etc.etc. and we 
can do nothing about those. That's the reason for the policy, since it's 
pretty much futile anyway.

Hi Jonathan,

Thank you for making an exception. I did not realized about the other
archivers. The information is not that sensitive but it does not feel
good to have it out there.

Regards,
Christophe
