Configure IBM Aspera Faspex to allow users to send packages to
external email addresses not associated with a Faspex account.
-
Go to Server > Configuration > Security and find the
Outside email addresses section.
-
Select Allow sending to external email addresses and
choose Allow.
Choosing Allow enables all users to send to external
email addresses by default. An admin can enable or disable this feature for
specific users from the Accounts page, while still
retaining the global setting.
-
Configure invitation link expiration.
You can choose to expire the invitation link after a set number of days, after
one successful upload, both, or none. If After one successful
upload is configured, this limit applies even if the package
download link is forwarded. After the first download, the package must be resent
for a recipient to download the package again.
-
Allow users to set a custom link expiration policy. This is enabled by
default.
All your Faspex accounts can now send packages to external email addresses. You can
configure permissions for each individual user by going to
Accounts and selecting the user you want to configure. For
more information on configuring user permissions, see Managing Faspex Users. When a user sends to an external email address that is not associated with an
existing Faspex user, Faspex creates a new external user with that email address. To
explicitly send a package to an existing external user, add (external) to the
email address. For example, enter johndoe@faspex.example.com
(external).
