I use a plugin called FeedWordPress for that, you can download it at http://projects.radgeek.com/feedwordpress/.

I don't use WP that much, but there are a few plugins that you can find. With my 2 WP blogs, I RSS feed them through BlogsOrganizer. Hopefully Bec will be around as she knows WP much better and will be able to suggest options.
I usually use Blog Organizer to add rss feeds to my wordpress blogs

Archer, have you gone through the Plug In Depository for Word Press, the RSS specific directory? PLUG IN RSS LIST HERE (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/tags/rss)
There might some listed in there. :cool:
-----------------
Did a quick look for you, these are six plug ins that claim to do what you are looking for. There are a few more pages that you could go through in the Plug In Directory if these don't give you your solution.

thanks gaystoryman.
i did try the feedwordpress one but it conflicted with another one of the plugins...
i'll take a look at the others.
Looks like the answers got covered. You need a plugin for feeds or can use the remote program Blogs Organizer to manage feeds to any blog you own including those you create with the "free" blog sites like Sensual Writer, Thumblogger, etc.
Curiousity Question: I always thought it weird that you need a plugin to import an rss feed to a wordpress blog ... anyone have a clue why this isn't a regular "feature" of the script?

I think its actually a plugin for Movable Type that does it for you, so it should be possible with a WP plugin as well.
