Firefox 2.0 has an new feature that allows it to hand-off RSS subscription requests to other RSS clients. It's very simple to create your own. Here is the code I wrote that installs Rmail as an RSS subscription handler.
<
script type="text/javascript">function SubWithRmail()
{
navigator.registerContentHandler('application/vnd.mozilla.maybe.feed',
'http://www.r-mail.org/bm.aspx?rss=%s', 'Rmail');
}
</script>
<input type="button" onclick="SubWithRmail()" value="Make Rmail your Firefox RSS handler" />

Nicely done, Randy! How about an extension or script that just adds it as an option under Tools>Options>Feeds along with the BlogLines, MyYahoo, and Google Reader that are already there?
