How Email to FTP routing works
Email
Email attachments are captured automatically via inbound email (Amazon SES).
DocEvent Channel
FTP Server
Files are pushed to any FTP server you configure.
1
File arrives via Email
Inbound email processed via Amazon SES. Attachments extracted and routed through the channel.
2
Channel routes it
DocEvent's channel server matches the incoming file to your configured route, queues it for delivery, and ensures no file is ever lost — even during downstream outages.
3
Delivered to FTP
Active and passive FTP supported. Username/password authentication. Configurable port and path.
