While requesting the deletion of your original (2003!?) post might be a
reasonable request[1], asking to delete another person's post without their
approval is definitely *not* OK.  The fact that it is a response to your
post (to a very public forum) is irrelevant.

To your credit, at least it was a polite request and not a demand with
implied Legal Attack-Dog Powers(TM).  I am afraid that the request is going
to generate a much larger trail than if it had been just left alone...

[1] Looking at the bigger picture, I would hope (and assume) that this 
    request is denied/ignored by the list managers.  Cutting material out
    of historical archives leaves me with an uneasy feeling at the best of
    times--very bad precedent.

    Never mind the zillion archive copies floating around...
