ShareFile

Inbox and sent messages management

The following information provides the steps necessary to manage your ShareFile mail.

The ShareFile Inbox feature allows you to access files sent to you through the web application, view requests for files that have been sent to you, view messages you have sent others and archive received and sent messages.

Important

It is not possible to view/manage sent messages that expired more than 60 days ago.

The files that will appear in your Inbox are ones that were sent through the web application of this account, selecting the option to Send email using ShareFile. Additionally, files sent through the ShareFile Plugin for Microsoft Outlook will automatically be stored in your Inbox if you were required to log in before downloading the files.
