I implemented something similar to this: some Haskell to scrape feeds to a sqlite DB, and some Lua to pipe articles to sendmail. https://github.com/mikejsavage/rssc and https://github.com/mikejsavage/rssc-sendmail rssc is the only thing I've written in Haskell outside school so it's probably bad, and it uses obscene amounts of memory because it's Haskell, but it does work.
