[PHP] PHP RSS to email
Hi, Anyone know of a PHP based RSS to email gateway. What I'm looking to do is have something running on my website that provides an interface for specifying some feeds, and these are subsequently checked every hour or so. If a new news item is found, it fires off an email to me. Basically want this since I check my email often, but not so much my RSS reader which is tucked away in IE7, which I don't use so much now since I'm doing a lot of canvas stuff. If no-one knows of one, presumably Magpie could be used to create one? Thanks. -- Richard Heyes HTML5 Graphing for IE7, FF, Chrome, Opera and Safari: http://www.phpguru.org/RGraph -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
