Log Out All Devices

Did you lose your phone? You can now log out all of your active sessions by clicking "Log out all devices" on the User Preferences page.

Thanks to Muhammad Zain Khan for investigating FeedMail security and highlighting the importance of this feature.

More on FeedMail Sessions

While we are talking about sessions here are some technical details on how sessions work on FeedMail.

When you log in (or create and account) you are given a session that is valid for 14 days. If you are actively using FeedMail, this sessions is refreshed in the background, keeping expiry 13-14 days in the future. Note that sessions are only refreshed on pages where login is required, like your subscriptions or user preferences. Public pages (like our FAQ) will not refresh your session.

This means that if you occasionally add, remove and configure your subscriptions you will very rarely see a login page on your main devices while still having a fairly short session lifetime.

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.

Thumbnail-only Mode

You can now configure your subscriptions to send in "Thumbnail Only" mode. This will include just the title and thumbnail in the body. This is especially useful for Digests where scanning thumbnails is faster than needing to skip over often uninteresting descriptions. Updates that don't have thumbnails will just show a title (like "No Content" mode). You can configure Thumbnail Only mode for any subscription on its settings page.

Digests Now Respect Category Filters

Due to an oversight category filters did not apply to digests. This has been corrected and future digests will be filtered by your selected categories. If you do not want this filtering to occur please update your filters to "Ignore selected categories" and deselect all categories to inactivate the filter.
