how did you get that?
I went to:
http://freeradius.1045715.n5.nabble.com/and used my browser to reveal the source code around the message. It shows:
<div class="info-message second-font big-title" style="margin-top:1em;padding:.7em .5em">
<b>This is a read-only archive</b> -- You can only post messages by email.
</div>
The classes for that <div> are not ones a casual user is likely to add to the description of the archive, so I assumed automatically generated when the archive owner selects certain options. As I said, it's not a message I recall seeing, as an ordinary Nabble user who spends more time than he should researching and posting here! :-)
i used only plain text when composing mails/
p.s. i use google online web-interface.
but replying in this thread is all ok.
Ah! I think I was answering a different question to the one you thought you were asking!
However, your description of how you're posting suggests it could be a setting on the archive that is causing the problem.
I have never used Nabble to archive a list maintained elsewhere, so am unsure of all the differences - though in the main it will be more a case of similarities.

what person must i contact to enable replying?
That will be the archive administrator.
Now I look on the archive's Home page, that appears to be "Hugo <Nabble>", one of the Nabble team - which is surprising and unusual!
Clicking on the link on his id, reveals he has some unusual group memberships. It seems clear that Hugo has been involved in "rescuing" the archive in some way, probably around the time he registered.
If Pedro (the current Nabble Support main man) doesn't come along soon and sort this out then I'd suggest an email to Hugo would be the appropriate action.
Having found all this I see why the mail list owners referred you to Nabble. It seems likely that the owners of the list itself have minimal, or no involvement, with the archive, hence their suggestion that you talk to Nabble about this problem.

maybe the bug affect only new created accounts?
It could be you are asking the wrong question of them, or they are giving answers to a different question to the one you thought you were asking? One needs to be absolutely clear whether people are posting through Nabble's web interface to the archive, or if they are using one of the cloaked Nabble-generated email addresses to send via the Nabble archive or just posting conventionally through email client direct to the mail list server, plus any of the other possibilities (e.g. posting to Nabble using a non-registered address, not using the cloaked address when appropriate), not to mention some customised code that Hugo added that could have unintended side effects.
