[gollem] Dropbox-type file sharing

[Michael M Slusarz]

Quoting Matthew <mw at robotmouse.com>:

> I'm using Gollem so that folk can browse SMB shares on my server; it  
> works fine. I've not really investigated the folder sharing feature  
> of Gollem; suspect it may not work well on an SMB back end, but it's  
> not a big deal; the things that need sharing are on shared, er,  
> shares anyway.
>
> What I'd like to do, though, is provide a way to link to  
> individualfiles rather than emailing them. Folk often have trouble  
> with size-related bouncebacks; many receiving MTAs have a size limit  
> of eg 10mb, so I'd like a way of getting a link to download a file,  
> that can be sent in an email will work for anyone without having to  
> log in. Similar to eg Dropbox.

IMP has been designed to easily allow someone to write a local  
attachment storage driver to accomplish this.  Now it doesn't exist  
yet, but doesn't require any changes to the internal IMP code.
