Hello! We have the following scenario: A remote server loads a database file on our System-i, after which it notifies us via email. Then, we manually submit the job that interfaces that file into our Accounting software. Is it possible to set up an email account specific to GoAnywhere, and then have GoAnywhere automatically submit the interface job after receiving the email? Thanks!

Yes, with GoAnywhere Director you can set up an e-mail box Resource from which you can receive e-mails. You can create a project that will check the box, and if it finds an e-mail it can then download the file and submit the interface job. You can set this up on a scheduler which will submit it to run as often as you wish.
