You sent your message to a publicly distributed mailing list.

I'm aware that there are some legal jurisdictions, in which, in some
circumstances, that which one normally thinks of as being public, can be
construed as "private".

Nonetheless, I seriously that an email to public list, will, in any
jurisdiction, qualify as private.  But then, I am not a lawyer, so maybe
I am wrong.

Maybe there is a cyber-equivalent of that South African "sex in the
middle of the public highway is a private space" case law, somewhere out
there.

Quoting from _your_ message

«If you are not the intended recipient of this message you are hereby
notified that you must not use, disseminate, copy it in any form or take
any action in reliance on it.»

I doubt that in any legal jurisdiction, any competent authority, will
consider any subscriber to dev@openoffice.apache.org to be other than
"the intended recipient of this message".

As such, no breach occurred.

I don't know about the email you sent in June 2014, but the one I'm
responding to lacks X-Archive headers. Whether or not they make a
difference, legally,  is debatable, but their absence implies that
archiving is acceptable.

From the web?

That is a very tall request, especially considering that the places that
archive the email sent to dev@openoffice.apache.org have no relationship
to The Apache Software Foundation.

Furthermore, those organizations that do archive messages, do not look
at them, unless there is a formal request, following the directions on
their website, to do so.

What _you_ need to do, is individually contact each site, and request
removal of that email.

>cancel it from your records by c.o.b. 16 March 2015.

Wondering if you realize that the request made in this email is also
going to be archived on half a dozen sites that have no relationship
with The Apache Software Foundation.
