Hi Stan,

Thanks for the idea, and yes, I'm aware of filelink. While the idea is 
nice, it wouldn't fulfill our needs. Our data must be kept private, and 
while there is the WebDAV extension, its functionality is very basic 
(files with the same name are overwritten silently, no support for 
expiring links, etc).

But anyway, I don't much like the idea of totally separating attachments 
from emails, it just feels off to me.

Thanks,

Charles
