Support for feeds enclosures. Support for renaming folders and the main folder (News&Blogs). Support for adding SSL feeds. This release will make a channel name unique in case of duplicate channel names. Crashing when the evolution-rss plugin is disabled has been fixed. Feed IDs have been moved from crc32 to md5.

I recommend to add Linux Screw RSS feed first
I don't know if this plugin will make me abandon liferea, but I would definitely like managing my feed items at the comfort of my email client. I was not aware of its existence and I think I'll take this plugin for a test drive soon. Things look great in the provided screenshot.
Thanks
Hi George,
Yeah, it would be nice to read about this plugin test drive results at www.g-loaded.eu…
