Thanks. yeah. the files are not sensitive, things like print-quality photos
of product, etc that are rather large. just that email is not designed nor
intended to be a file-transfer method, and we have limited disk space for
mailboxes on our IPS's server. J I try to keep mailbox sizes down, but with
some sales reps having smart phones, they never use Outlook and I have to
get on 'em to go onto webmail and delete their messages. So, when someone
sends a couple 5 or 10 meg files it starts clogging mailboxes up quickly. L

>From my perspective:

 

There is a complete lack of requirements. I can not stress this enough. You
have a total lack of requirements, and someday this will come to bite you.

 

Anyway, that said, I gather that the data probably isn't very sensitive. If
so, you could just give everyone Gmail accounts.

 

If it actually has something that you should be protecting (e.g.
commercially sensitive, or maybe it has some client information), then
consider Groove/Outlook (synced to Sharepoint/WSS) or SharePoint (WSS is
also free), as at least it's under your control and runs over HTTPS

 

Cheers

Thanks to everyone for the suggestions. We're going to try DropBox as you
get up to 2 gigs free. J
