Not that I know of.

But there is another way, a program called FreePOPs: http://www.freepops.org/
It contains an aggregator module which 'transforms' the RSS feed to a POP
stream. So you can read the feed with The Bat! as if it were a POP mailbox.
Direct link to the aggregator module description:

yes, it is, see details written by author, Alexey Vinogradov:

Rss2mail plugin is a gate which listen local port and translates RSS-feeds into
letters.

After installing the plugin, assing any local port on which the gate will work
(by default 110, but if you have another service on this port, like MyGate, you
can assign another port, for example, 1110).

Usually RSS channel can include a small picture attached to it. If you want
plugin to download this image (it is usually really small - about 1k) and attach
it to the news you'll receive from this channel, check the button download
channel's image.

Then, create a new POP3 mailbox. Enter the localhost as your mail server,
enter server port which you set in plugin's settings, enter the address of
requested RSS feed as username and finally put anything in the password field
(just to shut up The Bat! which else will ask you for the password on every
mailchecking).

Lats version 1.3 is available here for example:
ftp://ftp.gin.cz/pub/mswindows/the_bat/plugins/rss2mail13.rar

yeah, that's one thing that bugs me, too. It should be possible to set up all 
the RSS URLs in a .ini or whatever and then the plugin just polls those 
things one could even set up how often each URL gets polled and things like 
that. And all goes into one Account!

Nice idea but imho thats not possible with a plugin. Has to be a
external aplication (proxy) like Mygate, with which you can read news
in TheBat!

I will ask Alexey next time he is online in Jabber.

ah. okay. That could certanly be. I am not in (on?) any newsgroups so I don't 
know about that world. :-) Is there no proxy that can provide RSS feeds as POP 
for TB!?
