By default you can't do this from the web interface.  If the site
admin puts OWNERS_CAN_DELETE_THEIR_OWN_LISTS = yes into mm_cfg.py,
then list owners can delete their own lists.

I don't think this is possible with the web interface.  The command
line provides a config_list tool that can be used to do this.  There
are also some scripts to drive the web interface that may be able to
do this, but I don't recall the location of those at the moment
(somewhere on starship.python.org).

Also not possible from the web interface AFAIK.
