I am afraid, you are

I am afraid, you are misunderstanding how the configuration works. You can use "set header Title" (without the quotes to include the feed title in messages), "set header URL" (to include the feed URL in the message), "set header Title URL" (to include both, the feed and the URL in the message) or just "set header" (to not include the feed title/URL).

Ok, now I see :-) I was

Ok, now I see :-) I was pretty sure you can assign a custom title to specified feed :-) Ok, now that makes perfect sense :-)
Thanks!

info url

A little question, what does "Feed penalty" means in "info http://some.url" command?

Feed penalty

The feed penalty is an indication if the feed is well behaved, i.e. it supports conditional GETs.

And how do I set JabRSS not

And how do I set JabRSS not to deliver me messages when my presence is for instance "Away"?

set also_deliver

Have you tried just "set also_deliver" (without any additional option)? At least the default setting in JabRSS is that you don't get any headlines delivered when your status is "Away".
