Yahoo! announced yesterday that it has added RSS support into its web-based Mail program. Currently, RSS integration is only available in the Beta version of Yahoo! Mail. If you have a Yahoo mail account and would like to try the Beta version, log into Mail and click on the link that says “Try out the beta version of Yahoo! Mail.”

The RSS support does also integrate with My Yahoo! and Yahoo! Alerts, but one drawback is that any items read on My Yahoo! do not show up as read on Yahoo! Mail. As far as web-based readers are concerned, its functionality does not match up to NewsGator, but it can be advantageous to have your RSS and mail in one location.
