Doesn't make a scrap of difference.  As root I just made a file into my
own homespace with permissions of "rw-rw-r--".  Then I logged out as
root, and deleted the file as myself.  I can do this because I own the
directory in my own space, it doesn't matter who owned the file.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
