This is nice, no more superfluous flat file... thanks!
I don't think so! Because if I see this correctly, your own
solution will allow new entries to be refiled to other files,
removed or archived, without the script adding them again. If you
do this in Ians solution, I think they will be added again.
Theoretically my script shouldn't add things twice. It stores the
item's guid as a PROPERTY and checks to see if the guid exists in the
org file before it adds the item. I am assuming here that guids in
reqall are unique.
Yes, I understand.
However, if the user refiles the task to a different file, that
information will be gone and the item re-added.

Having investigated reqall a bit further, it seems that messages are
assigned various categories e.g. "Note", "Meeting". The latest
incarnation of my script will store the item from the rss feed in a
file according to its category. When the script is a bit more stable,
I'll upload it to github.
I have also done some work in adapting the jabberbot that I use with
my MythTV set up, so I can get a list of my tasks and post new one via
Google Talk.
