\"\"<\/a>As a long-time SugarSync<\/a> user, I’m happy to see the file synchronization service continue to add new features. The latest one might not sound like much on the surface, but it’s one of those functions that creates simplicity in a product. New to SugarSync as of today is support for email uploads<\/a> — just shoot a message to a unique email address and SugarSync will snag the attachments in the email. The uploaded objects are stored in your account on the SugarSync servers and are accessible on all other computers or devices attached to your account. Heck, at this point, you may not even need the email that contained<\/em> the attachments, so you could save some local space and delete it.<\/p>\n

I tested out the new “Upload by Email” feature and it worked as advertised. It’s an opt-in function, so I had to enable it in my account settings to get my unique email address — which I’ve just added as a contact in my address book for fast reuse purposes across all of my devices. The notes I sent included an Adobe PDF file, a Microsoft Word document and images — within a minute or so, all of the attachments appeared in my SugarSync server account and then on my MacBook, netbook, iPhone and Nexus One. That’s the overall feature I may like best about the product — the cross-platform support of PC, Mac, iPhone, Windows Mobile, BlackBerry and, since December, Android<\/a>. Note that certain file types aren’t accepted for security reasons — .exe, .cmd and .bat, aren’t stored, for example.<\/p>\n
