 Relax. Why _should_ you do anything about it? If someone decides to try 
 and contact someone using an address found in the From field of a 
 Usenet posting of 1996 vintage, it's unrealistic enough and others need 
 to get upset by the mere thought of such a possibility. After all, you 
 will not even see anyone actually trying to do that. 
  
 Removing old postings is usually pointless or worse - it would reduce 
 the amount of historical evidence.
