How do I remove my own posts?


To remove a post, log in to the same account you used to post the message and view your post. Clicking the "show options" link next to the date will display a blue "Remove" link to the far right. Click this link, select "Yes, remove it now," then click the "Confirm" button. That should do it.

If you'd like to remove posts you made in the past, but the email account from which you posted is no longer accessible or valid, you may still be able to remove your posts. To submit a removal request, please go to http://groups-beta.google.com/groups/msgs_remove

Follow the directions to submit the following information:

1. The email address originally used to post the messages.
2. The complete Google Groups Beta URL (or message ID) for each individual message you'd like to have suppressed.
3. A statement that says "I swear under penalty of civil or criminal laws that I am the person who posted each of the foregoing messages or am authorized to request removal by the person who posted those messages."
4. Your current email address.
5. Your full contact information, including your legal name.
6. Your reason for requesting removal.

Please note that you can only remove posts from one email address at a time. This means if you made 6 posts from yourname@example.com and 7 from yourothername@example.com that you want to remove, you'll need to submit 2 requests, one for each email address.

We will review your request and process the removal on your behalf if we find the information to be accurate.

If this does not answer your question, please search or browse the Google Groups Help Center for more assistance. If you're looking for more general information, you might also try your search on Google.com.
