Tonsho Exchange Plugin

admin — Tue, 19 Jul 2011 13:45:55 +0000

RossTech has released the Tonsho Exchange Plugin. For the first time Tonsho large file transfer is available to use with Microsoft Exchange. Our plugin for Exchange allows large files to be extracted from all mail passing through your Exchange server, both in-bound and out-bound. This means that not only do your users benefit from Tonsho’s superior managed file transfer, but we also take the strain away from your mail database. This keeps the overall database size down and helps you to run a stable and efficient Exchange mail server, by controlling the server resources used for file storage. Keeping the database size down avoids the worst case scenario of a corrupted Exchange database due to too many file attachments. For more information, visit the Tonsho Exchange Plugin page.

Tonsho distinguishes itself from the rest of the large email attachment sending services by allowing its users to send their files using their usual email program.

Nicholas Howard – Website

Nicholas Howard Ltd approached us to create a company website, showcasing their approach to recruitment which is based on experience and hiring with as much care and attention to detail as their own clients would. In addition the site needed to carry up-to-date listings of their jobs and include a search feature. We selected WordPress as the Content Management system, allowing the site to be easily updated.

Tonsho – Web Application

admin — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 14:05:07 +0000

Tonsho is our in-house web application for sending large email attachments. Tonsho is a full blown web application, built in Java for Apache Tomcat. In addition to building the front-end web site and web application for sending files, this project involved integrating with several external APIs: Amazon S3 for file storage, Google Chekout and PayPal for payment processing, and ReCaptcha for protection against spam. This application makes deep use of email integration, for which Apache James is deployed with custom plugin components called Mailets. To top it off we created a custom Java Applet to handle bulk uploads, to enable Tonsho to seemlessly handle dropped network connections during uploading.
