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.

I'm open to ideas as to how to fix this. The code which inserts the news into the database could also send that mail (and strip unwanted content).

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
