REXML is distributed with Ruby, so you'll never be able to prevent
people from posting issues here, and nor should you.  The only
reasonable process that can mitigate your lack of full attention to
this forum (which I'm not criticising) is to ask somebody else to keep
an eye out for you.

That, or set a mail/NG filter that copies messages matching /rexml/i to a
separate folder :)
