RSS Feeds

Feed URLs & Format

Every email address in SeRSSly gets a unique RSS feed URL. Feeds are public (no authentication needed) but use unguessable tokens so only people with the URL can access them.

Feed URLs

There are two types of feeds:

Type	URL pattern	Description
Email address	/e/:token.rss	All emails received at a single address
Folder	/f/:token.rss	All emails across every address in a folder (and subfolders)

Feed format

Feeds use RSS 2.0 with the following structure:

RSS 2.0


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<rss version="2.0">
  <channel>
    <title>Tech Newsletters</title>
    <link>https://serssly.com</link>
    <item>
      <title>Citation Needed #142</title>
      <author>molly@example.com</author>
      <description>Full HTML content with inlined CSS...</description>
      <pubDate>Thu, 03 Apr 2026 12:00:00 +0000</pubDate>
    </item>
  </channel>
</rss>

CSS inlining

HTML email content is processed through Premailer to inline all CSS styles. This ensures the content renders correctly in RSS readers that strip <style> tags.

Using feeds

RSS feed URLs require no authentication. You can use them with:

Any RSS reader — NetNewsWire, Feedly, Miniflux, Newsboat, etc.
curl or wget — pipe the XML into any processing tool
AI agents — have your bot fetch and summarize the feed
Automation tools — Zapier, n8n, Make, or custom scripts
