Quick DropSend Support for Sending and Sharing Large Files

Sending Files

Unregistered users:
To send a file with DropSend, go to the homepage and locate the file sending form on the left-had side of the screen. Type the recipient’s and your own email addresses, browse to the file you want to send, attach it and click on the “Send Your File” button. You can also include a message.

Registered users:
Log into your account and click on the “Send a File” icon. Then enter the recipient’s email address, type your message and attach the file you wish to send. You can also include a short description of the file (optional). Registered users can preview the message before sending and you can upload the file to your online storage for faster future access. When the file is uploaded, click on the “Send” button and the file will be sent.

Unless you've disabled email notifications, you'll get an email when the recipient downloads the file you sent. You can also go to your "Sent" folder and check your send's download status, as well as set download limits, there.

Unfortunately, you won’t be able to use DropSend Desktop Tools if you’re behind a proxy server. However, you can use the Web version of DropSend even if you use a proxy.
For Free accounts, files are available for 7 days before they are deleted.
For premium accounts, you can specify how long the file will be available for from 1-14 days.
Premium account users also have other features available, such as limiting the number of times the file can be downloaded.
