Show HN: SendRail - The easiest way to send files from the desktop

I clicked 'import facebook friends' assuming it would simply import their friend id's and message them when I tried to send them something. When I saw that you wanted to send them "invites", I clicked "cancel", but you sent several hundred messages anyway. This is unacceptable behavior by any application. I haven't been this pissed in a long time, now I have to spend an hour manually messaging each of those people and apologizing for the spam.

It's probably worth listing the reasons I should use this along with dropbox/box/sugarsync/whatever else (although it's perfectly valid if you're targeting users who don't already use one of those).

I imagine early users will hit your site wondering if there's something there that they don't already have.

Why can I directly access and download the file shown in the demo video? Why is it transferred in the clear via HTTP? http://www.sendrail.com/file/516885724/ResumeTemplate.docx

Just wondering why there isn't some type of authentication/authorization going one. i.e. If your delivery method is to a Facebook friend, why not require authenticating them to Facebook before granting access to the file?

Is the only security in place knowing a 9-digit number + filename?

I did notice that it's not case-insensitive which would help a lot. Also, this might be on your roadmap but a progress bar or some feedback of it being sent would be great.

Also, file seems to be not sent through HTTPS.
