Hi Stephanie, I am using rss2email ( http://www.allthingsrss.com/rss2email/getting-started-with-rss2email/), a script that I installed to track my package feed, and that is run by my Windows task scheduler every day, to send me the RSS news in an email (not as an RSS feed per se)
Now, just like you I get the good and the bad news following the nightly build. But since I get them as emails, I just set up a filter to mark good emails as read and I move them directly in a separate email folder (you could also delete them). This way, only the bad news show up as unread messages which catch my attention. Took a bit of time to set up, but then it ran seamlessly ever since. No extra work for Dan, and developers who might want to log the successful builds can do so. Hope that helps. Kevin On 3 December 2014 at 00:19, Stephanie M.
