What messages are kept within your local newsreader depends on what
newsreader you use, and often on what options you set within it.
That's completely irrelevant to the issue of what's kept on a
particular news server or for how long.
If Î÷½ç is concerned about whether someone can see the personal
information he posted, that has to do with whether the many news
*servers* out there keep the message, not with whether your news
reader or mine keeps it. Either of us could have seen the message when
he first posted it, and whether it was kept longer on out local
machines doesn't matter at all.
I no longer use Outlook Express as my newsreader, but even back when I
did, I never let it keep messages anywhere near 30 days. More
typically I kept (and still keep) already-read messages only for two
or three days).

What if the message contains ATTACHMENT? could ALL servers maintain that
file? Maybe just the MS Server does, I suspect.
No, your suspicion is wrong. Many, if not most, servers will keep the
attachment. You're out of luck. Your message has been propagated to
hundreds or thousands of news servers all around the world.
But I would contact the MS
customer service, would they help me?
I don't know, but even if they did, it would address only a tiny part
of the problem--less than 1%.
If you tried to contact all the servers, first you'd probably never
find more than a small percentage of them, and second, few, if any,
would be disposed to help you.
Whatever the damage was, it's done, and you can't really do anything
about it now.

Please help me!No matter what you do to delete the message it will always remain of

lots
of servers throughout the world for months or years and there's nothing
you can do about it.
I tried to delete a message and found it totally impossible when the
message has been on the Internet for more than a few minutes.
Sorry.
Regards Mike.
