> On top of that, I used to use his "forward newsletters to Newsblur" feature for a long time. I've long stopped using it and deleted all the feeds with newslet

  Newsblur mangled the formatting of a very large amount of newsletters I forwarded. The grouping per sender was great, but not really worth it if many newsletters end up unreadable. Considering Newsblur's solution relied on setting up (sender/subject) filters on your email provider, I just kept doing that, but instead of forwarding to Newsblur, I now direct them all to a separate folder. Lost the grouping per sender, but I honestly didn't explore an alternative too much. Even if Newsblur didn't mess with the newsletters' HTML and displayed them as GMail does, it was just too much of liability to blindly forward emails to a third party service like that: many companies do obnoxious things like send transactional emails from the same address as their newsletters, or blur the line between what is bulk and targeted mail, and I'd rather not have things like emails with flight information and other random tidbits of personal data floating around in someone's MongoDB.
