A kind reader pointed out to me that my Atom feed was incorrect. There were two
|
||
|
problems. First, I was specifying an incorrect URL in the feed's `<link
|
||
|
rel="self">` -- it was pointing to a nonexistant feed.xml file. Second, I was
|
||
|
omitting a `<link>` tag from the entries entirely.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Thunderbird didn't like this. With no `<link>` for an entry, it would show the
|
||
|
feed's `<link>` in it's UI. And that link left users at a 404 page.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I pushed a fix this morning. You might have to refresh or resubscribe to pick up
|
||
|
the changes.
