There is Nabble. It's not going to make you any friends unless you  
learn to post in plain text AND to include context  ... too often not  
done by Nabble users. Gmane is also a possible website that can mirror  
rhelp.

Yes, several. Have you read the information page and the posting guide  
yet?

Yes. You were offered an option to get a digest when you signed up.

Most people reply to both the poster and the the list, but there is no  
enforcement mechanism. Your unwillingness to do any extra work to  
educate yourself is duly noted. Speaking only for myself, I will NOT  
respond to any of your further posts because of your demonstrated  
privileged attitude. It would not bother me if other regular readers  
followed my example.

We do not agree that HTML is a better format. You are welcome to take  
your questions elsewhere if plain text is not acceptable.

.pdf and .txt files are acceptable attachments.

I say again:  You are welcome to take your questions elsewhere if  
plain text is not acceptable.
