<div>Sounds like you could do it via gmail and google reader too: <a href="http://ruudhein.com/from-google-reader-to-gmail">http://ruudhein.com/from-google-reader-to-gmail</a></div><div><br></div><div>And RSS feeds are just XML, so you could write something custom if you wanted complete control.</div>

I use rss2email to convert feeds into text I can read in my inbox in pine.<br>
Works great.<br>

Subject: Books by my bedside<br>
<br>
Three books that I'm excited to read:<br>
<br>
* [Love in the Time of AIDS][1], by Mark Hunter. It has been acclaimed as<br>
the best book about HIV/AIDS in South Africa, and I'm not surprised. I was<br>
in South Africa when Mark was doing his fieldwork, working within a<br>
community over the course of years, trusted enough to be given access to<br>
love letters. When he presented his findings, it was always dynamite.<br>
<br>
* [Consuming Mexican Labor ][2] by Ronald Mize and Alicia Swords. With a<br>
Republican House on the horizon, we can expect the anti-Latino rhetoric to<br>
step up a notch. And yet, as Mize and Swords show, there has been<br>
bi-partisan support for the idea that the US economy ought to rest on the<br>
backs of its poorest neighbours.<br>
* [The Wind-Up Girl][3], by Paolo Bacigalupi. A [biopunk][4] set in a<br>
future South East Asia run by Monsanto's corporate children. Bacigalupi's<br>
latest has been shortlisted for the National Book Award, but this is the<br>
book that, deservedly from what I've read so far, has launched him into the<br>
stratosphere.<br>
