Get an RSS Feed for Gmail Emails
If you are on Gmail, you can easily read you email messages in a news reader like FeedDemon as an RSS feed.The RSS feed of your Gmail Inbox can be found at the following location:
https://gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atomWhen you subscribe to the Gmail RSS feed in a newsreader like FeedDemon, it will ask for your Gmail / Google account credentials before completing the subscription process.
Google Reader doesn't support authenticated feeds at this time.
In case your feed reader doesn't support regular authorization, you may add the Gmail username and password in the Feed URL itself just like the FTP syntax.
Your new Gmail feed URL with the user / password will look something like this:
http://gmailusername:password@gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atom/The RSS feed will only display unread email items from your Gmail Inbox so if your Gmail RSS feed is showing up as blank in a newsreader, that's not a problem because you probably don't have any unread message in the account.
