r2e
Convert RSS feeds to email messages
TLDR
Convert RSS to email
SYNOPSIS
r2e command [options]
DESCRIPTION
r2e (rss2email) monitors RSS and Atom feeds and delivers new entries as individual email messages to a specified address. It bridges the gap between web-based content syndication and email-based reading workflows, allowing users to follow blogs, news sites, and other feeds through their existing mail client.
The tool maintains state between runs to track which entries have already been sent, so each invocation of r2e run only delivers new items. Feeds are managed with add, list, and delete subcommands, and the initial configuration created by r2e new sets the default recipient address. It supports both SMTP delivery and local sendmail for dispatching messages.
