Danielle,
I'd like to commend you on posting this thought provoking question!

Why indeed would one decide to delete an email to this list
simply based on "a certain [people's] person's name"?
It seems to me that a prejudicial bias is brought upon an
individual & that certain someone, their post & future posts are
not to be considered as a viable contribution fit to be read.
That is essentially inconsiderate & violates that fundamental element
indicated in the Vocalist "Netiquette" rules: respect.

If the reasons to delete were for lack of memory or system failure -
then it would seem to be a more collegial act than dismissing one's
thoughts out of hand simply for the name they bear.
