   Ok, gotcha, and what would be a suggestion?.

   Oh, it's only for netmails?, I see. I did implement those semaphores but   
   indeed they do what you say, they scan the whole messagebase and it's grown   
   exponentially it's slow, so can you explain how to make it whole, how can I   
   make it let the tosser in this case mystic to scan snly areas with messages to   
   be sent out?.

    NB> golded\manuals\gold_ref.txt will be your new best friend. :)   
      
    NB> For the easiest way, take a look at the AREAFILE keyword. In your   
    NB> case, you may want to try:   
      
    NB> AREAFILE AREASBBS d:\path\to\areas.bbs   
      
    NB> However, you may not like this method as I don't believe it adds the   
    NB> area descriptions. There may be other ways, though.. I just don't know   
    NB> them. I've always used AREADEF, AREASEP, AREALISTSORT, etc. in   
    NB> combination to make things look a lot better.   
      
   I'll look into it, thanks tho   
      
    NB> Hope that helps!
