Greetings,

Is there a way to have FFF check for new stories in an email address every X hours?  I looked through the settings and through the ini files and didn't see this option so I'm not 100% certain I can do this.

In addition, is there a way to auto accecpt any updated that FFF finds from those emails?

I run Calibre headless on my server in my home and having the grab and add parts of the workflow would be beneficial to me.

Thanks,
Jocelyn

If you use the CLI version of FanFicFare, you could script a crontab
job.  Calibre has an auto-add from directory capability, but you would
lose FFF's ability to set various columns.

There isn't any sort of cron capability built into Calibre.

The 'Proceed to update Library' dialog is something the Calibre dev
strongly recommends.  Some plugins disregard that, but FFF follows it
for safety.
