I have been looking at the article window (message viewer) and I have some questions two of the items in the toolbar:

Selecting the folder icon (Open this website in the system web browser) tries to open the Feeds website in the system browser. I had thought that it would open the feed article in the system browser. The other toolbars are configurable, but the article toolbar does not seem to be.

I say 'tries to open' because in some cases it fails.

The link shown in the toolbar may be the problem. I am not certain what the source is for this link, for example;

for The Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/rss) the link that is shown is 'https://www.theguardian.com/'. The <channel> <link> is 'https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news' and clicking on the folder icon opens 'https://www.theguardian.com/europe'.

for the BBC News (https://feeds.bbci.co.uk/news/rss.xml?edition=uk) shown above, the link that is shown is 'https://feeds.bbci.co.uk/'. The <channel> <link> is 'https://www.bbc.co.uk/news' and clicking on the folder icon tries to open 'https://feeds.bbci.co.uk/' which gives error 404.

edit: quoted the <> in channel link
