I like Martin's rssmail - available in this site or at http://www3.telus.net/public/irelam/ along with all his other Mercury / PMail utilities.

The last time I looked at RSSMail that was HTML-only. Checking again I see that there is support for downloading enclosures using wget, which is quite nice if you use them (I don't yet). (RSS2Email supports rendering enclosures but it doesn't autofetch.)

What advantages would rss2email give me - I couldn't find a feature set on the website?

The feature list is on the home page, but that's not enough. You'd have to try it. For me it's the way it generates plain text mails that work everywhere, my cell phone, my textmode readers, etc., and that it just does its job very well. Supports ATOM too, uses SMTP and can mail each feed to one or more addresses, and loads of other stuff that just come from scripted tools like superb encoding support, nice wrapping of text, awesome formatting, multipart MIME, recognition of every tag there is, etc, etc. It makes David Harris' postings to his blog very suitable for remailing to mailing lists, sets the headers according to publication and authorship, and just generally makes handling RSS actually fun.

Also, the link is bad - extra '/' at end.

Confounded IE, displays the bad link as visited even though it obviously isn't. I swore I typed it in right ...
