I have two clients who do not want to use ftp, for different reasons. In the
bad old days, they used to send me CDs/MOs/multiple floppies with the data.
Or print it all out and fax it of course, the typical solution of Japanese
IT specialists.

Then one client bought a license for me to use a file splitting utility, and
when they have a file over ~3MB, they split it into separate files, and let
me assemble them here. Same goes with deliveries.

For my other client, I wrote a simple file-splitting utility that does the
same thing as the commercial solution (but is less sexy).
