Feature: Deleting dmails within Outlook, FileZilla, etc.
We made a quick mention of this feaure last week, but to nail it home we thought we'd give you some more details.
The problem
When using Outlook, your iPhone, or other mail programs to receive/send secure dmails from your Dialawg account, you may be used to clicking "Delete" to get rid of an item--or similarly, when connecting via D-Drive (by FileZilla, for instance). Because Dialawg's primary use is for highly secure documents and notes, and because we store file revisions, comments, etc. with each of your items, we have disabled the delete feature by default. This way no one accidentally trashes important data or old revisions of files. This is a particularly nice safeguard for folks who accidentally delete an entire folder of items.
Solution
The first solution we might suggest is, don't worry about deleting dmails. Each Dialawg account gets a generous space allotment, so you might not need to every worry about deleting an item again!
But I really want to delete some dmails
Ok, ok, we hear you. If you're an advanced user who fully understands the risks of using the "Delete" feature of various programs such as Outlook, FileZilla, etc., you'll be pleased to know that you can enable this option. Log into Dialawg.com, click "Settings," and then "Applications." From here you can enable delete commands for Mail access, D-Drive access, or both.
