We currently have an account with www.mailbigfile.com to allow us to send & receive files which exceed our client's email limits. In our industry, a 10MB limit is not unknown.

Mailbigfile works fine for what it is but increasingly, our clients are starting to block it as a security risk.

A solution would be for us to license the software and run it from our own web server which is far less likely to be blocked.

Does anyone know of vendors in this market? We are looking at web collaboration systems but that's a much bigger project. The technology behind www.mailbigfile.com isn't that complex (http upload, email notification and then http download) so I'm hoping it won't be very expensive.

Cheers, Rob.
