All Bernhard has to do is add a special header to his messages which 
tells the mailing list archive that his messages should not be 
archived. From http://lists.kde.org/?q=about#Privacy:
"First of all, we respect the 'x-no-archive' mail header ala DejaNews -- 
if your mail message includes a 'x-no-archive: yes' header it will be 
dropped from our feed, to respect the wishes of list members who wish 
to keep their posts private."

Ingo
