[ZendTo] Request a drop off email - weird issue

[Ken Etter]

Neil,

OrganizationShortName in zendto.conf is correctly set to our company
name:  MSKTD
Any other thoughts?

“allowExternalUploads” in preferences.php is set to false.  So now I
know the issue here, but that gives me an enhancement request idea.

Jules,

On the Home page, you have instructions for users.  On my home page it
reads like this:

MSKTD users: you may login with your username and password and send
files to anyone, in or out of the company.
Non-MSKTD users: you cannot log in, but can still send files to MSKTD
users if you know their email address. Start by clicking the "Drop-off"
button.
MSKTD users who wish someone outside the company to send them files,
can make it a lot easier for them by logging in and clicking "Request a
Drop-off". That saves the other person having to prove who they are. The
request created will be valid for 7 days.

In my opinion, the above should only appear if “allowExternalUploads”
in preferences.php is set to true.  If it is false, we should see
something like this:

MSKTD users: you may login with your username and password and send
files to anyone, in or out of the company.
MSKTD users who wish someone outside the company to send them files
must log in and click "Request a Drop-off". The request created will be
valid for 7 days.

Thanks,
Ken

Where in the world is it getting "Mr." from? 

It looks like organisation short name.

grep “OrganizationShortName” in zendto.conf



 If someone comes to the site and choose Drop-off, they get a prompt to
enter their request code.  Which means that no one outside can send
files inside unless a request code is first provided.  This conflicts
with the message on the home page that says anyone can send us files if
they know the recipients email address.

What is “allowExternalUploads” in preferences.php set to?

I suspect it is FALSE, and you probably want TRUE if you want to let
anyone in the world upload files to your users, without them being
requested.


Best wishes

Neil
