<p>Related:Press Release, News Firewalls and inbox size restrictions have made it more difficult than ever to share file as attachments to email messages. While file sharing services exist, they are often not the best choice due to concerns about HIPAA regulations, and questions about privacy, snooping, and data retention policies that remain beyond the sender's control.</p><p>Thanks to the OutDisk FTP add-on, Microsoft Office Outlook users can now easily upload file attachments from their emails directly to a server that remains under their complete control. OutDisk is a practical solution for companies that want more control over their data their users need to share in the process of conducting the company's business.</p><p>From the sender's perspective, an Outlook email message is composed and files are attached to the email, as usual. The sender can click the "Use OutDisk" button to manually activate the upload, or the upload can be triggered by exceeding a file size threshold. The size threshold may be set to 0 bytes to upload all files.</p><p>Any file exceeding the size threshold is automatically uploaded to the company server, and a link to the file is inserted into the email message. The file remains on the server until the recipient downloads it, after which it can be removed automatically or manually according to company policy.</p><p><a href="http://www.broadwayworld.com/bwwgeeks/article/OutDisk-FTP-Add-on-for-Microsoft-Office-Outlook-Helps-Companies-Deliver-and-Control-Email-File-Attachments-to-Recipients-20131227">Keep reading...</a></p>
