AtoMail is a Python script that converts email (or other messages) into an (Atom) RSS feed. This is for example useful for tracking announcement mailinglists in your favorite RSS reader, if no classic RSS feed is available.
Mail can be retrieved from many different sources, including local mailboxes, remote mailboxes (POP3/IMAP4), and usenet newsgroups (NNTP). The goal of AtoMail is to be clean, modular, well documented, and easy to modify. -
- mail2rss.org: This website provides a mail2rss service without needing extra setup. However, it does not give you full control over your RSS feed, is not very reliable (in my experience), and of course requires you to deliver all your mail to a third party. Notice that it should be easy to set up a similar service using AtoMail.
- mailbucket.org: Another mail-to-RSS gateway, yet currently more reliable than mail2rss.org. The same remarks apply as for mail2rss.org.
- mail2rss: Requires .NET, which is a pretty heavy requirement. This application works by querying your mailbox, which can be done using AtoMail as well.
Several other email to RSS services and programs exist. Here are a few, together with a brief comparison with AtoMail:
