This article provides a guide to enabling the Direct Email feature for a Workspace zone. By setting up a dedicated email address, you enable all authorized users to easily upload files directly to the zone by simply sending an email attachment. This capability streamlines the file-sharing process within your Workspace.

Emailing files to a zone means all permitted users of the zone can upload files there via the dedicated address.

To enable emailing files directly to a zone, follow the steps below:

1. In your Workspace, select the Direct Email tab in a zone. This tab is represented with the envelope icon.

   

2. Select the Direct Email check box.
3. Assign a unique email address to the zone, or click Generate Random to have an email address created for you. If you choose to generate an email address, it will provide a two-word phrase in the form "email.name". The full email address generated in this way will be email.name@workspacename.egresscloud.com.
4. Click Select Location to choose the destination folder for your uploaded files.
5. To try and automatically prevent the uploading of small signature images from your email, check the Attempt to remove email signature images check box.
6. Click Save. You can now email files to your zone using the assigned address.
