With OE (which you seem to be using, you can cancel your own posts.

>From the Help File...
To cancel a posted message

1.. In the Folders list, select the newsgroup in which you posted the
message, and then select your message.
2.. On the Message menu, click Cancel Message.
Notes

a.. You can only cancel messages that you posted.
b.. After you cancel a message, it may take some time for it to be removed
from your server and other servers on the Internet. Canceling a message does
not remove it from another user's computer if the user downloaded the
message before it was canceled.

The MS newsgroups do recognise cancellations, however other NG providers may
not.
