Compose

The Compose page is where mail packages are constructed and sent. Specify mail package recipients in the To field, and optionally, the CC or BCC fields. Specify a subject to appear in the email and an optional message. When an email is sent to the recipient, it will contain a unique URL to access these files and the message for this Package.

You can password protect the Package, set an expiration date, enforce a maximum download limit, allow message replies, and more. Based on the configuration, not all options may be available and some options will have defaults or ranges enforced.

The Attachments section is where files can either be attached from your local computer, the Files Feature, or the GoDrive.
