  • The Computerisms mail server will reject any mails larger than 10 MB, this utility will let you send those files with ease
  • This application maintains its own independent database of users and passwords.

Setting up the Computerisms Large File Transfer Utility for the first time

  • Go to https://fetch.domain.tld and accept the Security Certificate
  • Enter the Administrative Email address as User name, the associated email password, and click Login

  • In the next window, click the Administration link
  • Select the Users icon
  • Click the Add User icon
  • Set the login name
    • Note this does not have to be in the format of an email address
    • The advantage to using an email address as a login name is your users will not have to remember a different login name for this service.

    • You can set the password to be the same as the user's email password, but updating the email password will not update this password
