How do I delete posted 'messages' I've written in Yahoo Groups? I can't delete them.?

Question

Signed up to a Yahoo Group back in 2002 and now have seen that random fan messages are still there. I want to delete them and then my membership to the group but it won't let me delete the past messages.

How can I fix this? I don't wish to have the messages posts I've written to remain in the Archives for all to see.

Thank you.

Only the owners of the groups can delete messages in the groups:

Yahoo allows members to delete their OWN posts- owners can not pevent this other than closing the archives

you click on the post as if to read it- on the left top corner is

Reply | Forward | Delete (very smal text) click the delete.

as long as it was posted on that ID membership- you should be able to delete your own posts

to leave group (just in case)

go to this link http://groups.yahoo.com/mygroups click edit my groups on the top left- locate group (if there's more than one) under the last column Leave Group, check small box - click save changes
