This is not correct, the "problem" was both the original poster
*and* all those who could not maintain enough discipline to
ignore the posting and, instead, spammed the list with their
complaints.
It is standard practice in moderation to remove an offending post
*and* all the followups thereto, which can really only be
achieved by moderating everything initially.
