There should be a web interface for cancelling articles.  This can be done

I see the reasoning behind this, but I don't think it's necessary. Note that
SMTP & NNTP messages *cannot* be cancelled

Um, not following you here at all. LUGNET is nntp underneath and nntp news
servers allow cancel. When you send a note to Suz asking that she cancel
something for you (giving a precise reference to it and a clear indication
that it was you doing it) what I believe she actually does is cancel the
article via nntp.


It IS possible to cancel your own posts via newsreader with email confirmation.
To find out, read here --> http://news.lugnet.com/admin/general/?n=10302


But if it is somehow found to be possible to cancel via HHTP web interface, I
would like to see that functionality made available.
