Two ports enclosed, mail/rss2email and its dependency converters/py-html2text.
The latter conflicts with the existing converters/html2text; I had a quick
attempt at renaming the script to de-conflict but it didn't work - so I have
just left them conflicting as nothing depends on the ~9y old unmaintained
C++ converters/html2text.

html2text is a Python script that converts a page of HTML into clean,
easy-to-read plain ASCII text. Better yet, that ASCII also happens to be
valid Markdown (a text-to-HTML format).

rss2email is a free tool for delivering news from RSS feeds to your
email program.

......

Tester notes: this is super-easy to use. If you're too lazy to read the
docs, you can configure like so:

r2e new <email>
r2e add http://www.undeadly.org/cgi?action=rss

If your mail server requires a valid From: address, set DEFAULT_FROM in
~/.rss2email/config.py (see 
/usr/local/share/examples/rss2email/config.py.example).

Optionally, if you want to skip sending mail for any existing stories,
"r2e run --no-send".

Then add "r2e run" from cron and check your mail.

OK to import?
