About Packages

Packages are similar to email messages. A package contains a note and optionally one or more file attachments, and is sent to specific people or groups. Files that are sent as package attachments are uploaded to a MOVEit server, and a new package notification email is sent to the recipients to inform them that a package is waiting for them. Recipients can click on the web link in this notification, sign on to MOVEit, and view the package, where they can download the files.

If enabled, a recipient can also reply to a package and send additional attachments, which will also be uploaded to the file transfer server. The organization administrator can set options that determine who can send and receive packages, enforce user- and package-level quotas, and control package expiration and download limits.

Packages are stored in mailboxes.

You can also access the shared mailboxes of other MOVEit users if your administrator has enabled this feature.
