Reference: What is RSS?
The whole thing needs to be table-driven, starting with the feed identifier, the RSS header info, and the collection of patterns for the items.
Naturally, the specification table will be XML. This means we can use an XML parser to search and process the table.
- For email, the channel can be determined from the "From" and "Subject" fields, and the <pubDate> from the "Sent" field.

"Data! data! data!" he cried impatiently. "I can't make bricks without clay."
— Sherlock Holmes to Dr. Watson in "The Adventure of the Copper Beeches" by
Arthur Conan Doyle.
"I
like deadlines," cartoonist Scott Adams once said. "I especially like the
whooshing sound they make as they fly by."
"There is nothing like that feeling of spending days and days banging your head
against a wall trying to solve a programming problem then suddenly finding that
one tiny obscure and seemingly unrelated piece of the puzzle that unlocks the
solution. Oh yeah!"
- Chris Maunder, CodeProject Newsletter 28 Jan 2002
"Management at eSnipe,
which is me, is also feeling the pain of the 2002 bear market. So rather than
pout about it, I bought some stuff on eBay that I really didn’t need, but made
me feel better."
- Tom Campbell, president of
eSnipe
