1. I can do a search on any topic over thousands of posts on R easily and effectively
Yes, several. Have you read the information page and the posting guide yet?
2. My mailbox do not overflow with emails so that I do not need to edit it every day
Yes. You were offered an option to get a digest when you signed up.
3. I can arrange to receive only the responses to my posts automatically
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.
4. The content of the post might be better formatted for more information other than just the text (we now have HTML!)
We do not agree that HTML is a better format. You are welcome to take your questions elsewhere if plain text is not acceptable.
5. I can attach pictures to my posts for questions related to plots, results etc. be quick and effective rather than just links to other sites
.pdf and .txt files are acceptable attachments.
