Gold-locked posts in feeds with Mozilla Thunderbird

Posted under Bugs & Features

Hi,

I just realized today that posts that require a gold account to see are completely omitted from the ATOM feeds, unless logged in.
I use Mozilla Thunderbird as a feed aggregator. I don't believe it's possible to log into my account from Thunderbird, (or at least I never found a way), so these posts never make it into my inbox.

If it was possible for standard users to see at least a simple link to the locked post (without the actual picture) when fetching a feed, that would be all that is needed for Thunderbird to work I think.
If serving gold-locked posts to standard users' feeds is an issue, this could be optional, and enabled via a parameter in the feed's url. (E.g: /posts.atom?tags=xxx&gold)
