[Sage] Sage doesn't update "properly"

[Robin (UK)]

Thanks for replying Kenneth.  Surely that can't be?!  Are you saying that 
the Option provided ONLY relates to when the actual "title" of the feed is 
changed, from "BBC News" to "B.B.C. News", for example, and not to actually 
updating the feeds automatically and showing that new information is 
available by emboldening the feed title shown in the side panel . . . 
:((  If I'd have found that something like Scribefire was available for IE7 
I think I would be giving up on Firefox etc by now ;)  Surely a primary 
advantage of RSS is to be automatically updated with new information and not 
to have to keep checking by clicking manually all the time??

Oh well . . .  maybe Sage will think of adding the functionality ion their 
next issue . . . ??  Pretty please :))

i think the option points towards changing the "name" of the feed in the
list to match the title of the feed if its ever changed (basically a
automatic version of right clicking on a feed in the list and selecting
"get feed title"). not to be confused with a timed check for when feeds
update.

hmm, that is unless i have miss understood your question.
