Scheduling automatic update & email

    Hi all,

    I searched through the forums and couldn't find anything related to this, but I'm new here ... so maybe I missed it:

    I have a cron job scheduled to automatically "Check All", which is working perfectly. I am just wondering now if there's any way to automatically email the results to me as well? As it is now, I visit the page each day and click to Email.

    If this is not a current feature, perhaps it can be added by simply adding a URL parameter to the Update URL (i.e. "&email").

    Curious,

    You could do that with a cron job too if you wanted (give the check all enough time to run before you do the email though).

    As soon as this results page launches, I'll definitely give kudos to your wonderful service by way of a tagline.

    I have a follow-up if I may ...

    If I want to do a "full" check of my keywords via cron, as indicated by FAQ #24 by clicking "Check All" ... is the URL different than the one provided in FAQ #19 (http://login:password@www.digitalpoint.com/tools/keywords/?action=lookupall)?

    In other words, does the URL I'm currently using in cron do an exhaustive check from 0 for all my keywords, or does it start at the last known position?

    Thanks,

    - Shane
