For some reason, Pop Peeper won't let me add the following RSS Feed :

https://status.search.google.com/en/feed.atom

After I enter the above URL in the "Incoming server" input box, I click on the "next" button and nothing happens. It's like I never clicked on the button at all.

Is anyone able to reproduce this on their end? I'm using Pop Peeper v5.5.3.0 and RSS v5.4.5.0

It worked for me on the first try, but... I almost immediately knew what the problem probably was and sure enough I was able to duplicate it.

The problem is that the wizard is expecting the sendmail plugin in this scenario. In fact, on my first attempt to duplicate this and I saw the sendmail page, my first thought was, "I should remove that"...

So here are a couple of work-arounds:

- If you have the SendMail plugin installed, but not enabled:
1) Go to main menu: Tools / Plugins and enable the SendMail plugin
2) Create the RSS account (you can disable send mail on the last page)
3) Disable the SendMail plugin


- If you don't have the SendMail plugin installed:
1) Enable "Advanced Options" under main menu: Tools / Options / General and press OK
2) Right-click on empty space below your last account (if your list is full, there's always a couple pixels below the last account) and select "Create Account (manual)"
3) Fill in the necessary details and be sure to set
Server type = RSS
incoming server = https://status.search.google.com/en/feed.atom

Some other default values:
email address = rss@rss.com
login name = rss

An alternative to this method is to right-click on an existing RSS account and select "Duplicate account" and then modify the necessary settings. This method also requires "Advanced Options".


Sorry about that!

Thank you!
