[ZendTo] Re: Auto-deletion of files

[Jules]

The file is auto-deleted a number of days after the file is first 
posted. You cannot auto-delete the file immediately after the download, 
as there is no way for the server to be sure that the recipient has 
successfully received the file and that the download did not fail for 
some reason.

I'm afraid you're asking for the impossible.

If there is only 1 recipient, then the recipient can choose to delete 
the file before the normal 30 (or whatever you configure) days have 
passed. But you can easily remove that button from the interface to stop 
them being able to do that.
