Correct, so this brought me to the idea of somehow getting the feeds in a database and then writing a plugin to handle it. Using cron to fetch them. Started working on that by defining what i would like to have: centrally kept storage of only the articles i am interested in and receiving new articles as they become available. A centrally kept storage I already had and could choose either MySQL or the IMAP-storage. Then I started looking again with my good friend Google and stumbled on rss2email. A Python script which reads feeds and mail new articles as they become available. BINGO! Downloaded it, configured it and put it in a cronjob, Then use some filters to shuffle the messages in the correct folder and I was all set up. It took me 15 minutes to get it working. If people are interested: http://rss2email.infogami.com Thanks for thingking with me. If there are any questions as to the implementation: please ask.
