I'm considering your site feed tool for my blog. But as the blog owner would I be able to move the blog one day and have subscribers' feeds automatically updated?
Do you have plans to translate feedmyinbox ?
I'm sure my readers would appreciate to receive e-mails in french and land on french pages after using the (custom) signup form.
(and if you need help to translate some strings...)
hi, i added my first feed. then i created an account from the confirmation email. now i can't add any more feeds. when i try to add a new feed from feedmyinbox.com, the following page loads blank and the feed is not added to my account: http://www.feedmyinbox.com/feeds/subs.... i'm using firefox mac 3.0. i've tried safari and the bookmarklet. both without luck.
Trying to test out your service before recommending it to some of my readers. I'm getting an http 500 error when trying to sign up for feeds from my site at www.questabc.org. It's a pretty standard Wordpress blog, so I'm not sure what the problem is.
I like FeedMyInbox, but there's one particular feed where speed is the issue. Is it possible to get one RSS feed checked more frequently (like every 5 minutes)? If this is not possible (or not possible for now), can you folks recommend a different webservice which meets this desire? Thank you.
I really appreciate the simplicity of this service but I think it could be made even more useful by allowing users to specify how frequently they'd like to receive updates. You've made an arbitrary decision that every 24 hours will work for everyone. But I think you might find that in the age of Twitter AND information overload, some people may want several updates per day or just once a week. It could be a question as simple as "How often should we email you with updates?" with 3-4 radio button options or so (twice daily, daily, bi-weekly, weekly).
I understand the more features you add, the less easy it is to use, but this seems like one setting just screaming to be added (maybe it's just me screaming :)
However is it possible to extend the service so it does work with sites that does not have an rss/atom feed but that have some sort of posting system like http://infokrieg.tv/webradio_archiv.html
Over the last couple of weeks, we have gotten more than a few inquiries from people not receiving their confirmation emails.
After spending time looking into the situation, we believe this to be resolved. The problem stemmed from some DNS issues, which were created a couple of weeks ago when we moved the service to new hardware.
All that geek-speak to say it should be fixed! However, don't hesitate to touch base if you experience any weirdness. Thanks.
When adding an email sign up form to a website, clicking the submit button in IE7 opens two pop-ups. One is the conformation, another is a blank subscribe window.
Your help page says that there is an unsubscribe link at the bottom of the email ... it's not on the feed confirmation email -- me thinks it probably should be there too.
Say i'm a company using the feed box embedded on my site. would i be able to track subscribers? if not do you have any plans for this? i'd love if you had that!!
I just signed up for 10 blog feeds. Some feeds arrive with an attachment, an e-mail link to the blog post. Others arrive as a straight e-mail, with the blog post in the body of the e-mail, just as a regular e-mail shows up. Most of them, however, arrive both ways, alternating between the two. Why is this, and can all of them arrive, consistently, as an e-mail would - NOT as an attachment?
I use your service to track a feed for airline deals.
This presents two problems, neither of which I experienced with a predecessor (now defunct) service called R|Mail:
(1) Deals often disappear within hours, if not minutes. Getting once-a-day e-mails from FeedMyInbox just doesn't cut it. I need real-time (or quasi-real-time) response at best, and hourly response at worst.
(2) Some of the initial posts in the feeds contain very long Fare Rules that simply aren't necessary to see in the FeedMyInbox e-mails. Instead of having the entire posting e-mailed, I would prefer an option that simply provides the Subject: of each message from the feed (with the link to the original thread still intact, of course) or, at worst, an option to get the Subject: and, say, the first 5 or 10 lines of the body of the message.
