Am I the only one that is receiving ugly html tags in the newsletter?
Moving to the arch-general list. No, you are not. The front-page news contains HTML tags, but rss2email doesn't seem to strip them out. I'm open to ideas as to how to fix this.

That seems a little complex and confusing as now we need to add email capabilities to website code, and then give that sender permission to post on the announce list. Naw, I prefer the more unixy way of "just use the output of ThingA, pump it through ThingB" - in this case, and RSS feed through rss2email. And now that I look at it, it SHOULD be converting HTML to plain text. Dusty, are we sending html content as text/plain content in these feeds? That could cause the issue here

I think that's the reason, the <a href="..."> appears in the RSS view in Firefox as well, when it should appear as a link. -- Abhishek
