However I feel a few obvious things have not been said. <br> <br>The problem seems to be that the RSS standard(s) are broken. Why not simply fix them by adding a url/base element? <br> <br>The problems using MIME seem to stem from broken software, not broken MIME. MIME is absolutely meant to do this stuff, so why not fix the blogging tools to emit the appropriate headers? It's not that hard. Also any ISP that doesn't server up an rss+xml MIME header for *.rss files has a broken configuration - tell them to fix it. <br> <br>Why not fix the problem rather than hack around it?

I've convinced two vendors, each of the last two days. I've also posted samples for you to play with and incorporate into your aggregator. I hope you'll help.
