About this Add-on
You can manage feeds with all the regular features of Thunderbird/SeaMonkey, like filters, labels, searches, and views. And you can choose to display entire stories or just summaries (configurable per feed).
Forumzilla downloads feeds every 30 minutes or on another schedule you specify (configurable per feed), and you can import OPML feed lists (a.k.a. blog rolls).
It supports all common feed formats (RSS 0.9, 1.0, and 2.0 plus Atom 0.3 and 1.0).
To try it out, install it, following the instructions above, restart Thunderbird/SeaMonkey, and then select Feed Subscriptions from the Tools menu (in SeaMonkey, open the Mail window first).
Tip: add a Feeds button to your toolbar in Thunderbird for quick access to your feeds subscriptions. Just right-click on the toolbar, select Customize... from the context menu, then drag-and-drop the Feeds button from the Customize palette to the toolbar.
