Guide Review - BlogStreet Info Aggregator

It's so simple: turn RSS feeds into emails and you have the perfect feed reader, your email client.

BlogStreet Info Aggregator makes subscribed RSS feeds available via IMAP and through a webmail interface. Now you can use the great features to organize, share and archive of your favorite email client to deal with news even more efficiently.

Info Aggregator even offers flexible server-side filters that let you file certain feeds in folders or forward them to another address automatically.

Unfortunately, Info Aggregator has no option that would put newsfeeds in folders automatically, by default it all turns up in your Inbox. And, as useful as Info Aggregator is, one thing it is not: pretty. Templates to customize the messages would be great.
