Yahoo Mail to Support RSS Reading

Scott Gatz at Yahoo says that the latest “build” of the Yahoo Mail beta includes a full post RSS reader. I see it in my account. It more or less has the same functionality as Newsgator or Thunderbird, but it's missing a couple of key features. For starters, I can't mark an item read or unread. It's also integrated with your feed store on My Yahoo. However, the problem is if you read an item on My Yahoo, it's still there in Mail and vice-versa. There needs to be an option that facilitates this. There's also no support for in-line podcast playing. These are small quibbles. I am sure that Yahoo will work these out. Below is a screen grab. Note that you can post to 360 or save an item to My Web 2.0. A nice start!
