Not sure if this is an error in coding at the website, or a glitch with SM 2.0.1's News & Blogs function, but here are the details for your purrusal:

Website is http://www.earthsongsaga.com/index.html.  When I attempt to
subscribe to the page (Bookmarks | Subscribe to This Page), it opens up a feed page with a "Subscribe to this feed using" box at the top. As I stated above,
I use the News & Blogs feature in the drop-down box, but when I click the
Subscribe button, the Mail module comes to the fore, and the Status Bar has a line in it that states "http://www.earthsongsaga.com/feed.xml is not a valid
feed."  That's it.  Nothing more.  No way to troubleshoot the problem or
investigate why it's not considered a valid feed.

Additionally, this feed *was* considered valid by SM 2.0, and I was already
subscribed.  It was after I upgraded to 2.0.1 that SM started giving this
notification in Mail/News.

OS is Win XP SP3 with mostly current patches (behind a few, probably). (And for those checking UA's, yes, I'm still using 1.1.18 for active mail--at least
until Karsten gets Mnenhy finalized for 2.0.x.)

TIA for feedback, analysis, and advice for the site author if necessary --

I'm thinking a site-problem.

I get the identical response in tonight's Linux trunk nightly (experimental-SM-2.1a1pre):-

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.3a1pre) Gecko/20091231 alias Firefox/3.5.4 Lightning/1.1a1pre SeaMonkey/2.1a1pre ID:20091231000353

I even tried manually entering the page's RSS-button's URL "http://www.earthsongsaga.com/feed.xml"; into Blogs and News feeds subscription page, and got the identical "not a valid feed" response.

OK, I just tried it in stable SM-2.0:-

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.1.4) Gecko/20091027 alias Firefox/3.5.4 Lightning/1.1a1pre SeaMonkey/2.0 ID:20091027201209

and go the same-result:- "http://www.earthsongsaga.com/feed.xml is not a valid feed."

Do you think it now really isn't a valid feed? Barry.
