| How do you prevent someone from deleting anon posts using
forged sender info and the Supersedes: header?

most do not honor it.

| My apologies for the numrous postings Bob ... but this is what I am
experiencing. I post a message then I am able to supersede it - it is then
removed from my ISPs news feed. I agree it's still on Google but it
indicates that there is some removal possible through this method. I have
found a number of my postings going missing on the local feed - and on
accasion - even from Google!
This should not be confused with the "no archive" that I put in which
allows the message to expire after the 6 days or whatever. Messages are
DEFINITELY being removed (sometimes by other) in a non-moderated NG so it
must be possible.
The question I have then is HOW is it possible to remove messages from NG?

I just checked this out on my news server and the superseded message is
not removed. So far as I know the Supersedes header isn't used in
any way by the server, it's a function of the client to act on it.
Try this:
telnet <isp newsserver> 119
head <superseded message-id>
body <superseded message-id>
An example:
In alt.privacy.anon-server.stats,
<20070024.060102.changes.daily@stats.bananasplit.info> is superseded by
<20070025.060102.changes.daily@stats.bananasplit.info>.
$ telnet news.bananasplit.info 119
$ head <20070024.060102.changes.daily@stats.bananasplit.info>
Path: news.bananasplit.info!stats.bananasplit.info
From: Banana Stats <fleegle@bananasplit.info>
Newsgroups: alt.privacy.anon-server.stats
Subject: Daily Mixmaster Remailer Changes
Message-ID: <20070024.060102.changes.daily@stats.bananasplit.info>
Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2007 06:01:02 +0000
Summary: Remailer Statistics
Expires: Fri, 26 Jan 2007 06:01:02 +0000
Supersedes: <20070023.060102.changes.daily@stats.bananasplit.info>
Xref: news.bananasplit.info alt.privacy.anon-server.stats:12429
The superseded message is still there and obtainable.

Depends on the news server configuration. Most don't honour cancels at
all so once it's posted it's there until it expires and nobody can do
anything about it. You can override the default expiry behaviour with
an Expires: header, but only within bounds defined in the server
configuration.
