Glendower: I can call the spirits from the vasty deep.

Hotspur: Why, so can I, or so can any man; But will they come, when you do call for them?

As I commented upthread (Monday) I have seen instructions on how to
recall messages.  I tried them, and they did not work.  I tried again
more recently, and the instructions did not work, and I received
bounce messages to the effect that the request was not understood.
I also commented above that I had looked at the mailman documentation
for which you provide a link, and did not find any method described for
recalling messages.

If you think I am mistaken, please find the information on how to do this
and provide a specific link.  Providing a link to the main documentation
page and suggesting that others go looking is to send them on a wild-goose
chase aka waste of time.

It would be a useful feature, I agree, and if I simply failed to find
what I was looking for, I would welcome correction.
