just to help : easy and do not ask for changing the existant :-) ----------------------------------- convert email to RSS: why and how source: http://drexel-coas-elearning.blogspot.com/2005/07/convert-email-to-rss-why-a nd-how.html
why: 1) It would be nice to consolidate information feeds from mailing lists to RSS feeds 2) Information search sites often supply email alerts for queries but not RSS yet 3) Convert comments on blogs posts to RSS so anyone can subscribe to the comments posted update: it looks like Blogger does not accept an email address to blogger.com so this doesn't work (at least for Blogger accounts) how: 1) set up a Blogger account 2) under settings/email/mail-to-blogger create a new email address 3) send your email lists or email alerts to this new email address 4) subscribe to the atom feed automatically provided by Blogger for any blogs. For readers like Bloglines that are good at autodetecting feed sources just pasting the blog url is sufficient to add that feed Here are some variations: 5) Create a Feedburner account that will convert the Blogger Atom feed into RSS and will provide stats of how many subscribers you have to your new feed 6) under settings/email/ in blogger put the same email you did for mail-to-blogger in "blog send address". This will basically post new comments back as new posts in the same blog. This is good because it prevents you to have to create a new Blogger account but you will have to monitor more closely what kind of posts are getting submitted and delete if necessary. ----------------- MailBucket MailBucket is an experiment in alternative methods of email management. For now its only feature is a public email-to-RSS gateway: forward your email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and have your news reader pick it up at mailbucket.org/slurp.xml (where you choose slurp, having checked that it's not already in use). http://www.mailbucket.org/ --------- MailFeed MailFeed is a PHP script that checks a POP3, IMAP, or NNTP mailbox on demand and returns an RSS feed containing the messages in the mailbox. This is great if you run a controversial web site that gets tons of hate mail, because now posting it to make fun of people is like, no hassle at all. http://wiki.wonko.com/software/mailfeed/ ------------------ RSS tools: http://www.eu.socialtext.net/rss-winterfest/index.cgi?great_rss_tools 50+ RSS Ideas for Educators http://www.teachinghacks.com/category/rss/ -----Message d'origine----- De : [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] De la part de Tonnerre LOMBARD Envoyé : mercredi, 31. mai 2006 13:36 À : Glogger Steven Cc : swinog@swinog.ch Objet : Re: [swinog] Reading list as RSS feed Salut, On Wed, May 31, 2006 at 11:29:30AM +0200, Glogger Steven wrote: > well, i think RSS is quite a standard and there are possibilities to > provide the swinog mailinglist also as RSS feed.. Frankly, ICMP is also a standard. Shall we communicate using icmpchat?
