Gmail Atom Feeds

Posted in: Technology

Gmail seems to have Atom feeds now. (more info)

Put this address in your feed reader:

https://gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atom

When prompted, use your full e-mail address as the username.

If your aggregator doesn’t support 401 authentication, you can embed the username and password in the URL:

https://username%40gmail.com:password@gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atom
