I Don't know how to have mail notification, but is possible to have a search for topics with an amount of inactive time ( using %SEARCH{...}% and %CALC{}%), there's an example of showing a search for one week old topics in FormattedSearch

Then, of course you an emit the result of this search as a RSS feed (adapt the WebRss page %Search to create for instance a WebObsoleteRss

Create a page that has a %SEARCH{}%, sorted by date in reverse order, limited to 100 (or so) topics. Basically the TWiki.WebChanges topic with reverse sort. See details in VarSEARCH.
