D'oh, I guess it was a dumb question. Searched this group and I found out that the proper file is now .rspec. Also found the answer on the formatters, looks like right now there's only documentation and progress formats? That's probably fine, I'll likely switch to documentation format because it's less verbose which is nicer for email. I'm still wondering one thing though, is it possible to disable colored output from a command line option? It seems like before you could pass --no-color but I'm not sure whether that's still the case now (I don't have access to my codebase right now so I can't test it myself). The reason being that right now when I redirect the output of rake spec into a file (rake spec > $tmp where tmp=`mktemp`) I get all the bash color escape sequences in the file, which is pretty useless for email.
