This is covered in the FAQ: 
<https://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/PidginCommunity#WhyWontYouRemoveMyMailingListPosts>

I would add that some mailing list archives simply subscribe to the list 
and don't mirror the primary archive site.  In fact some original sites 
would consider it a violation of database copyrights to mirror them.

Note that by posting to the list, as well as its owner, you are simply 
compounding the problem.

Note I'm only a list user, so have no power to implement your request, 
or change the policy on this.
