Expiration Warning

Purpose

Inform a sender of an unread transfer which is about to expire.

Details

If enabled, the server will inform the sender of an unread transfer 24 hours before it expires, by sending an expiration warning email.

This allows the sender to extend the transfers expiration time and avoid expiration.

Note that the expiration warning email combines information for all recipients of the original upload into one email. As a result, it is possible that some recipients have already retrieved their transfer. This is reflected in the information.

Configuration

  • Scope: transfers sent by a user, effective immediately, applies to all transfers by that user in the system, including already sent transfers
