Thunderbird: Automatically Send Large Files with Dropbox and YouSendIt

Whenever users want to send large files to someone else, they often choose to upload the files to a file sharing service rather than attach them to an email. However, using a file sharing service can be time consuming because it requires going through many steps. Luckily, Thunderbird offers an easy solution for uploading large files to storage services without any hassle. Continue reading to learn how to enable and use this feature.

This Thunderbird feature is currently available in beta version only and will be pushed to stable release soon.

1. Launch Mozilla ThunderBird.

2. Click the Tools button from the menu at the top, and then go to Options.

3. When you see the Options window, switch to the Attachments tab at the top.

6. You can choose between Dropbox and YouSendIt. The service providers will probably increase in the future when this feature is pushed to stable release. Click Set up Account to jump to the next step.
