Having screwed up once again and posted an OT to the list I was
wondering if there is a way of deleting such postings?
No, but you might be able to hold mail in your queue until
you are certain that it is OK to send.
Assuming that you submit via SMTP:
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtpd_sender_restrictions = hash:/etc/postfix/sender_access
/etc/postfix/sender_access:
u...@example.com hold
This mailing list forwards all your postings to mailboxes of
subscribers world-wide (some of which re-publish it on websites,
which are indexed by search engines etc.). There is no protocol
to revoke email. And if such a protocol did exist, you would not
have any guarantee that it is enforced.

As usual the answer lies in the hands of the user, Think twice before
writing, and then twice before sending.
