Thanks for your response. The delete requests had all "source: ARIN" in it but
the object in the database had "source: ARIN # Filtered". I tried to modify the
object and found this by accident. I didn't think that this was possible but
obviously it is and was an error on our side:

OBJECT BELOW MODIFIED:

route:          74.208.0.0/17
descr:          CUSTOMERS-4
origin:         AS8560
mnt-by:         MNT-11INT
changed:        noc at 1and1.com 20080411
source:         ARIN # Filtered


REPLACED BY:

route:          74.208.0.0/17
descr:          CUSTOMERS-4
origin:         AS8560
mnt-by:         MNT-11INT
changed:        noc at 1and1.com 20080411
source:         ARIN

After that the removal was possible.


Regards,
Axel
