Any user who creates a new posting has more control over the
post than just letting it go out to the proper newsgroup(s).
The creator of a posting may get rid of it by cancelling it.
To do this, it depends upon which newsreader you're using.
The only people that can
cancel/delete a post are the creator and the system
administrator(s).
-
In 'rn' or 'trn', when you're in (at the end of) the post,
type "" (capital "") for "" You'll see something like:
(Mail) End of article 3338 (of 3338) -- what next? [npq] C
Canceling...
(Mail) End of article 3338 (of 3338) -- what next? [npq]
If you get no message, you can assume the article was
canceled.
-
In 'tin', the same action is called deleting the article.
To do this, type "" (capital ""). You should see "
article..." appear briefly under the list of commands at
the bottom of the screen, then " Deleted" should appear at
bottom center.
