I'm yet to receive my first email, but assuming that works correctly, I love the idea! Gone are the days of a trillion tabs lining my browser waiting for me to find the time to read them. One small suggestion though is perhaps some pagination on the list, when I read hacker news I tend to limit myself to 2 pages. I know I can set the limit to 50 and that's near enough 2 pages, but I find it easy to lose my place in the list. Perhaps paginating at 30 would be more comfortable for those used to reading it on the site?
