binkd does not and cannot... all it can do, if configured for such, is
create semaphores for other tasks to react to OR it may start those tasks
directly... it can do this after the session is complete (default) or it
can do this immediately after the file is received (uses ! in flag or exec
command)...

eg1:
# create a semaphore after the session is complete
flag x:\\bbs\\semaphore\\mail-in.sem *.su? *.mo? *.tu? *.we? *.th? *.fr?
*.sa? *.pkt *.tic

eg2:
# create a semaphore immediately after receiving a FOO file
flag !x:\\bbs\\semaphore\\newfoo.sem *.foo

eg3:
# start hpt to toss mail after the session is complete
exec "nice -n 19 /home/fido/bin/hpt toss link"
/home/fido/inbound/secure/*.[STFWMstfwm][ouaherOUAHER][0-9A-Za-z]
*.[pP][kK][tT]

eg4:
# start the SRIF file request processor immediately after receiving a REQ file
exec "!/home/fido/bin/srifreq *S" *.req
