May I suggest that you might be happier using one reader for news/mail related 
to lists, even though you might want to use something else for other news, 
particularly binaries? I use the seamonkey suite for virtually everything, and 
the new 2.0beta for everything including RSS monitoring. It has really sped up 
my reading, and I mark threads I want to follow so when time is short I can just 
read "watched threads with new posts" to catch up.

I have a script to get seamonkey2.0beta working on FC11, works fine on previous 
releases.
