Zip2Email

[Socrates]

Let me propose one more addition: let the return email indicate who downloaded the file. sometimes I send a file to 25 people, and I would like a record of who downloaded it.

we cant figure that one out though.... they would have to enter their info or something so we can identify them, there is no way to do it automatically.

but it is a good idea... maybe have it for people who have account?

You could have an account, or you could create a very simple small application that is attached with each ZIP2EMAIL that activates , requests to submit confirmation to the user and then delete's itself upon extraction.

I did something similar for a company using VBA as they wanted to know who used a particular spread sheet file via email. So I created a plugin separate from that file that when the file was activated it activated that plugin.

The only thing you would need to do is have an option for this but also to inform the antivirus program that app is safe.

thats too complicated... we could make them enter email before download, but thats also complicated.

In general, you are sending via email always the same link, so there is no way to know who clicked it without doing more work.

For instance, if you send it via interface, then it could work like that... but that means sending email through interface :-). Thats more work but possible.

Then we could send different link to each one of them since it is sent through our interface.

Even before I sent it, I was concerned that this might be difficult, or demand manual input. I hoped -- but did not know -- if there was a way of connecting their download with the email address to which the link was sent.

If there is not . . . then I retract the suggestion.

Sorry.

I suppose your rite really, the only way is to create a seperate link process or a seperate application that runs in the background but either way it's something that would take time, research and months of testing to get it rite.

we can do it from interface... where you send email by going to attachmentcloud.com/send and then we can insert special link to each..... but that cant work if you send via ZipToEmail application since email is sent via outlook and we dont see who are you sending it to.
