Feed Export

We are pleased to announce support for exporting your feeds. This is a feature that we hope no one is waiting to use but is important for being a good steward of your data.

Simply go to https://feedmail.org/subscriptions/export (or click the link from your subscription list) to download your subscriptions in one of two currently supported formats.

OPML is an industry-standard format for migrating feeds between readers including podcast clients. (Did you know that you can use FeedMail to get notified of new podcast episodes?) When exporting to OPML a different category is created for each of your emails and rich metadata such as feed titles are included for ease of use.

The text file export is the simplest possible format. The downloaded file will simply be a list of feed URLs, one-per line. This format is also widely supported and it's simplicity makes it easy to use in ad hoc automation.

We hope this is helpful to you whether you want to make an extra backup of your subscription list, run some personal data analysis or have decided that FeedMail is not the reader for you.

DNS Outage

From 2024-08-26 19:46 to 2024-08-27 11:21 UTC FeedMail had an outage. Until 2024-06-26 20:34 FeedMail was completely down. For the remainder of the outage most emails not sent. It is expected that no feed updates were lost during this outage. Updates would only be lost if they were only present on the feed within the 50min of total outage. Most feeds ensure that updates are present for days so this would not be an issue. Notifications have been delayed and should be sent by 2024-08-27 12:31. This may take longer if your mail provider applies limits and FeedMail needs to retry delivery at a later time. Update : All delayed notifications have been sent successfully. Timeline All times are in UTC . 2024-08-26 19:46 Start FeedMail goes down.   19:53 Detection Automated monitoring reported that feeds were not being checked. 20:34 The Database IP was hardcoded, restoring most functionality. 2024-08-27 11:21 Resolution FeedMail was switched external DNS. 11:24 Schedule of ...

Digests are now Supported for Owner-Paid Feeds

Owner-paid feeds allow feed publishers to provide FeedMail to their subscribers at no cost. For example the FeedMail Blog is an owner-paid feed. Up until now digest subscriptions were not covered by owner-paid plans. Subscribers could select a digest but they would have to pay for the subscriptions themselves. Digests are now fully supported under owner-paid plans. For users: The owner-paid feeds in your digests no longer count towards the cost of the digest. For publishers: Users will now be able to receive your feed as a digest or included in one of their existing digests. You will be charged one credit for each digest issue containing items from your feed (no matter how many items from your feed are in that issue). Notably this cost will never be more than real-time subscriptions would be.

Changes to Billing for Multiple Simultaneous Updates

This change may result in increased credit usage for non-digest subscriptions. Am I Affected? Digest Subscriptions are unaffected . Owner-paid Feeds are unaffected . Frequently updating real-time subscriptions are affected . If you have questions regarding your specific subscriptions please contact FeedMail support . Background FeedMail pricing has always been 1 credit per email notification. However in practice FeedMail would charge at most 1 credit every time a feed was checked, even if there were multiple new items on that feed and multiple emails were sent. In other words FeedMail sometimes undercharged users. Going forward, this billing error will be corrected, which may result in higher credit usage for feeds that were previously undercharged. Correcting this issue is essential to preventing abuse, ensuring long-term sustainability, and maintaining fair pricing. Multiple updates are a rare occurrence. It usually happens on on feeds that update very often (faster than once every 5...
