[ZendTo] Re: Auto-deletion of files

[Gray McCord]

I believe there are two mechanisms that can be used by Zendto to delete uploaded files. The one I think you are referring to is where a user manually deletes a dropoff. In my experience, this is very rarely used by my users. The other mechanism is a system-wide auto delete, where the admin can set a lifetime for all dropoffs after which the system deletes them.  I believe the default is 2 weeks, but you can set it to whatever you want in the config file. As far as I know, there is no mechanism built into Zendto to auto-delete right after a dropoff is downloaded, although a little php code could solve that if you need it.
I’ve been using Zendto for a couple of years now, and my users love it.  No more asking IT to set up an ftp account for a one-off file transfer. 

Hope this helps,

Gray

Subject:  [ZendTo]  Auto-deletion of files

Hi all, I'm looking for a simple file transfer solution for our business. I would like something that allows staff to send files without my involvement, to anyone they have an email address for, and have the file auto-delete after the recipient has downloaded it.

Zendto looks as though it would do this, apart from the auto-delete. Is there a preference to remove the user's control over file deletion?

Thanks
