RSS integration enabled in yesterday’s Thunderbird nightly builds
In: Mozilla
1 Aug 2004Yup it is here – bug 253490 – Turn on the new RSS extensions and add it to the installer.
It isn’t completely working yet, but it is ready for testing. Works very much like the Forumzilla extension. It even displays the webpage in full as specified in the <link> tags in the RSS feed like Forumzilla does, which isn’t ideal. Atom feeds work fine though – only the <content> is shown in plain text format.
Well, on to the screenshots. I’m not in the mood for too much writing today.

Hmm… if it supports Atom too, then why the name is “RSS News & Blog Account”? “RSS/Atom Feed Account” would be nicer…

Except, as with other software based clients, it only keeps track of articles you read on the system you read the articles on. So, if you are at work reading a couple of articles at lunch time, you come home and there are the articles ready to read again.
Bloglines is the only RSS client I know (I think there is another web based client, but it’s not nearly as nice as Bloglines) that is web based so that no matter where you read your RSS feeds from, you are always current.

And that my friends, is why Thunderbird is the best mailclient around – This feature kicks ass :)

This is pretty much everything i wanted in a rss client. Sadly it seems like attempting to sort feeds into different folders results in broken feeds that do not update.

In this particular case, because there are so many free rss readers around, the fact that Thunderbird is open-source (thus free) does not give it an advantage.
