It was actually a pretty decent thing if you set up a dedicated account (I used to maintain rss2mail and https://github.com/rcarmo/rss2imap).

I still have archived posts in MIME format, complete with images, etc. Amazing for archival purposes.

The tricky thing is actually dealing with title-only feeds - these days apps like Reeder will fetch a readable version of posts automatically, and I never got around to implementing that in earnest.
