My golded does accept ALT+S in the arealist and i can select scan all then.

For automatic scans golded does support semaphore files.

This bi-directional function is the interface to the tosser.

The workflow is tosser does have new incoming mail and adds the areas with new
mail to the semaphore file. Sometimes the term "flagfile" is used for them.
For hpt it's the keyword "EchoTossLog".

Golded can read this EchoTossLog at start and would check the areas within for
new mail. There is a similar mechanism the other way. Golded can write a
semaphore flagfile with areas of new mails written by the user. This could be
used to trigger the tosser to do a scan for new mail. Check the doc files for
semaphore.

You may need modified script or batchfiles for this if you see growing
semaphore files.

Regards

Kai
