Deleting uids from a public key

I'm attempting to delete an out-of-date uid/e-mail address from my
public key.  The deleting part is simple, keyservers however don't seem
to recognize the change.

I'm comfortable using deluid to remove a uid from my key, but I'm
concerned that after doing so gpg doesn't ask for my password.  When I
view my key with 'gpg --list-secret-keys' the second uid and associated
e-mail address are gone, but when I export my public key and send it off
to keyserver.kjsl.com (either using the web interface or 'gpg
- --send-key') the uid doesn't seem to get removed.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Cory
