Digest reading is tedious

Like many, I am sure, I get R-Help in digest form. Its easy enough to browse the subject lines, but then if an entry interests you, you have to embark on this tedious search or scroll to find it. It would be great to have a "clickable" digest, where the topics list is a set of pointers, and clicking on a topic takes you to that entry. I can think of at least one way to do this via web pages, but I bet those with more web skills than me can come up with an elegant solution.
I sincerely hope you don't mean that you wish HTML enabled content in the actual emails coming through the mailing list. People who send HTML in email text should be taken out back and shot :)
Pretty much what my spam filter does... Well, it kills the message, not the sender, although the latter would be a more permanent solution.
You could always look through the archives at: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/ And simply sort by date or whatever else suits your fancy.
Exactly what I was going to say. In fact, the archives have been updating considerably faster than my inbox at times when there has been a "Stau" on the Information Superhighway.
