Please don't reply to a random message to ask an unrelated question. 
Even if you change the subject line the 'References' and/or
'In-Reply-To' email headers will cause your message to be a part of the
unrelated thread in threaded email clients and web archives, as you can
see here: <http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2006-02/threads.html#00766>

You can set the number of scrollback lines with the -sl argument or the
saveLines resource.  I recommend using resources so that you don't have
to supply a million command line arguments to rxvt on each invocation. 
Just stick them in ~/.Xdefaults instead.

rxvt has about a million options you can tweak, and they are all
documented in the man page.
