This is an interesting idea, however, it might compromise the integrity of
a list by making it so easy to delete messages. Also, there are far more
important issues that need to be addressed in future Listserv upgrades
than this. After all, how many times does anyone ever have to edit or
delete a message that was posted to a list?
