You are right that I could ask to delete old posts from somebody else, as I cannot prove that I wrote the messages but, why should I do it?

Again, you seem to miss the point here.

Let's say I downloaded all your posts, in my
local, private PC.

You will never know this, and I can re-post
everything whenever I want.
Or I can give them to whoever I like.
Or I can redistributed them by different mean.

Now, rest assured I've no posts older than
20 days, so I guess yours are long gone.

Nevertheless, someone else can have a different
approach and keep everything.
So, even if the admin of mail-archive.com will
agree to delete your post, there could be others,
you do not know who, which still have them.

It is a distributed system, everybody can have
everything, so it is quite difficult to delete
all the posts everywhere.

bye,
