How about I tell you after you tell me which repository it's in? >:=>

Seriously, though, 'cvs admin -o' will do what you want. Use with
caution! Make sure you thoroughly understand the command (i.e. RTFM
carefully) before issuing the command, or you could wreak havoc on the
repository.

'Course, there's no knowing who may have checked out the archives in the
meanwhile, so if I were you I'd be changing my email password (but then,
you already knew that, didn't you? :=)
