Arnold,

I have changed the RSS feed settings so that items are just the title
and a teaser. However there is no setting for a minimum number of
items. There is a setting for maximum number of items, and this is set
for 10.

Since my last email to you I have also found a setting for how long
the teaser is. This is currently set for 600 characters but it could
be set to higher or lower value.

Let me know if this helps or if you would like me to make another change.

Mike
